meelmore is on the agenda but I am thinking about leaving that till I am back from Kili. I would like to do Bloody Bridge River -> brandy pad -> comadoagh -> Bloody Bridge River? I will have to see what andy wants to do.

Lenny, Lenny, Lenny... I'm not letting you off the hook that easy.  Think how good you will feel having conquered Meelmore before setting off for Kili.  You've let Meelmore get the better of you too many times, but I reckon we should teach it a lesson this Sunday.  

Once we get Meelmore sorted we can go for a bit of a ramble elsewhere, if it's training your looking for.

Let me know what you think.

I WANNA BE YOUR DRILL INSTRUCTOR... I'M GONNA CUT OF ALL OF YOUR HAIR  ;)

You will not be cutting my hair. I dont have much left and I like what I have.

I really do want to do Meelmore but not just yet. There is to much hate there from both of us to do it at the moment. I will conquor it on my return. But you want to do the walk set out?

I've done that walk loads lately so if you don't mind I'll pass this time around.  I've be planning an Ultra Stealth Coastal Bivvy for a while now, but just never seemed to find the time, so I think I'm gonna have a go at that instead.

You'll enjoy Bloody Bridge to Commedagh.  It's a nice walk but, to be honest, I reckon it will be more difficult than Meelmore.  ;)

Just had a wee browse there, very informative videos.  You seem well prepared and there is a fair amount of money in that kit.

Hope you have a great trip.
