Assuming the wife allows me then I'm up for it. However I couldn't get out of work before 5pm so I could be at Donard Car Park by probably 6pm and up at the wood by 630.

I run quite hot so I'll need a small ruck for waterproofs/fleece. Other than that a few mars bars, a sigg of water and a hat ought to do it.
