We could do the bivvy on Friday night, then you could head off Sat morning for your solo.

Yep no bother, has anyone done a long range forecast I'm all for bivving but a certain Mr Mears said on TV last night that when out camping if you are roughing it your doing something wrong. :-X

Are we going to do a bit of tramping while we're up there cos I have to with the MMM coming up !

I'm game for a walk but I don't want to be doing it carrying the full gear for an overnighter.

I thought I might use this as an excuse to do my Bernagh summit. I'm fairly new to all this malarky so I don't want to over commit distance wise and I've yet to even do a distance walk carrying overnight gear.
