What's everyone thinking time wise? Dowser is my lift and we can't leave Bangor until 3pm but we can meet you all up there.

Liam, I'm hoping to get to Donard car park around 3pm and should be up at the usual spot by 4pm.  Keep your eyes peeled for a Vango Tempest tent and come say hello! :)

i popped up about 4pm but the only campsites i found where the abandoned messy ones  :'( so went for a wee walk around the granite trail instead  ;D (i like the signs and old equipment displayed along the route)

probably be walking past the stile sun afternoon on way back from the caves so will see if anyone is still about then but i'm sure you'll be packed and gone by then

Sorry about that, was partly my fault as I had planned to be up there for 4pm.  Unfortunately at the last moment I had to change my plans and wasn't able to make it to Donard Wood.  Hopefully catch up with you at another meet soon!
