Sounds good to me.

Do you guys have radios then? What kind are they? are they expensive?

Came in very useful for co-ordinating outside tap operation from the loft when I was trying to sort the plumbing last week

Sounds good to me.

Apart from the fact I cant spell Karma I have had 3 attemps at Meelmore with other people and everytime I has been a fail.

Once with Jonno (my fault being a fat git)
Second time with a friend about 3 months ago (he fell over and badly hurt his ankle and had to come down)
Third I fell on it 4 weeks ago in the snow. (didn't hurt myself)

But everytime I was with other people.

call it superstision (cant spell again) but I think I will come but going up Meelmore I will go by myself when we get there.

Excellent!  This is starting to become a bit of a reunion... someone get on the blower to Billy Backpack, his presence is missed!

Awesome, I'm still largely carless. Will be nice to travel in a bit of style

Just found out that I have to be in Saintfield for 11 on Sunday morning for my nephews christening, so I'll probably head out early saturday morning and have a bit of walk, then meet you's all at Meelmore, then be off at the crack of dawn in the morning. If anyone needs a lift on Saturday from Ballynahinch direction let me know, if you're up for a bit of walking that day, and Sunday if you don't mind being up early.

So the public has spoken and Meelmore Summit it is, on the 15th January 2011.  Meeting at Meelmore Lodge, times to be comfirmed.

sounds good to me :-)

Is this going to be heading up late Saturday afternoon and back early Sunday morning? Or are you guys planning a longer walk?

My plan is just a quick overnighter, leaving late Saturday afternoon and back home Sunday morn.  Probably leaving from Meelmore Lodge sometime between 3 & 4pm.  Some folk who fancy doing a bit more walking usually head up a bit earlier and just rendezvous at the campsite.
