Good one Typo-on and Claire, there is no such thing as a 'pic of shame' on a winter camp.  Did you send the birthday greeting in the morning?

Hi Clairebear
First of all well done on your camp and in those conditions 8) 8) in your thread you mentioned parking at the police station i picked up on this as im heading up to the easter camp next week and just wanted to ask had you to walk back down the road to get into Donard carpark or is there a way in at the station end?
PS love your last pick Snug As A Bug In A Rug ;D ;D

Donard Wood is a great spot, the last time I was there was over Christmas after being beaten back by heavy winds.  It feels all the better after coming back down from battling the elements higher up.  The last pic does look cosy.

Hi Glenn b I just dandered down only a 10 min stroll and it's all foot paths.  Maybe there is a way in from there as it would save you a walk but for 10 mins I was happier to park there.

Cash was loving his sleeping bag, I'm glad I got it now!

Good wee spot as its sheltered will def use it again if weather is unbearable.
