Aye, I'm up for this one all being well!  Been a while since I've been out and I've missed the last few NI-Wild trips so it's about time I got the finger out :)

My preference would be to park at Meelmore and dander over.  Would be good to return the following day by a slightly different route as well, although perhaps the Brandy Pad is better left for the return journey ;)

I could be up for this, work permitting! I would be in the tent, is there much room at this site for pitching?

We've not been to this spot before so I'm not sure. Though if there's been buildings there in the past I'd guess getting a tent somewhere would be fine.

It's very weird it looks like a training camp for wall building , there is some few flat spots for tents from what I can think off  and plenty of Walls to put a taro up against

Just realised the rugby world cup final is early AM Sunday 23rd October.  Just a caveat to say that if Ireland make the final I'm going to have to give this camp a miss... unless of course someone can get a big TV on top of Binnian :D

If Ireland get to the final it will be something I'l have to see to believe, not hear.

As much as I love them and wish them luck, its just something I'm not counting on or putting my hopes on.

Dont be cancelling the camp just yet.  ;D
