Please bring food for yourself, the group meal is no longer happening.
Isn't that the day before Easter Sunday? doubt i'll be able to make it :(
yes, but what dates suit everyone? maybe the weekend before.
The week before suits me better, go with what suites everyone.
The 31st March would potentially suit me better although I'd need to check. Easter Sunday is for eating chocolate and watching Star Wars anyway ;D
If it's the 31st of March I'm there... Armed with an Easter Egg and a Leg of Lamb for slow roasting ;)
31st of march it is then.
anyone wants to go can u reply again, so I can put ur name down.
Put me down for the 31st.. Will bring the mint sauce lol

Sounds good, me and my friend hope to attend! :)
Put me down for this too please. Note to self...no freeze dried meal that turns into soup.....(ref:Mourne way camp dinner)

Had Wayfayers chicken tikka for lunch and it was really good, then bacon and beans for breakfast also really good. Heavy but great food.
Then a fry at Meelmore.. Good to meet you..
Would like to go, but doesnt sound like a buckfast camp

;D sitting here in work laughing

Yay!!!
Dare say I'd have one in tow if I can make it.

Is anyone bringing sprogs? Was thinking about bringing mine (hopes to open the flood gates, so his are entertained ;))
Im up for this as well, but the 31st would suit me better and defo bringing the young fella, possibly a mate and his kid too.
Count me in.
Bang goes the booze then
why do you think the booze has to go ?
Well if the parents dont mind, then I'm still bringing some.
dont think any parents mind as ni wild camp is not like sat. night in town centers. people may well get drunk but nothing nasty and kids find it funny.bringing drink is almost compulsory lol
hey, guys, I just wanna check with yous.
I just wondering if you would like a egg hunt at this easter camp?
obviously I will be hiding the eggs and stuff.
The reason for this is because I don't want to go waste my time hiding eggs, if you all not wanting to do the egg hunt.
Im out
I think hunt the egg could be a laugh. Though this has given me an idea, watch this space....
Im gonna fire my name in the hat for this one guys, im thinking that i might bring along my nephew as he's been bending my ear for ages and this would be a good start for him.
What am i letting myself in for eh :)

If the majority of people want a egg hunt then, I will sort it out.
i'm up for the egg hunt please :)

Loads of people have them. sure you could borrow one
if anyone feels like bringing one for me to fall out of will they please say so on here. no point in loads of people carrying un-needed weight. Thanks kindly.
What distance is it from Donard car park to the camp site, my wee babies want to go camping but they are only 2 and 4, this could be real fun for them ..
it about 30 mins for an adult with heavy backpack, so add some time for the kids, especially if you're carrying them :)

1st prize: Giant Easter Egg
2nd prize: Large Easter Egg
3rd prize: Large Easter Egg
4th prize: Medium Easter Egg
5th prize: Medium Easter Egg
6th prize: Medium Easter Egg
Happy hunting on the day.

no problem.
me and my bro will be up there very early I mean about 10am to 11am, because we will be putting up are tents and then hiding the eggs, then lighting the fire.
so I probley can't meet you at the carpark, but im sure other people could.
if you ask one of the other people that are coming to it, ask them what time they will be heading and maybe then they can show you up.
Most people show up between 2pm and 5 pm on the last camp
It pretty much easy to get too. just keep going up donard forest, there is 3 bridges along the way up, you will cross 2 bridges but when you come to the third bridge don't cross it just go str8 on beside it until you get to a gate. (you will see the ice house from there) before you pass the gate you just turn right into the forest itself and then you should see us. (this is if you take the small trail up.)
but as you have infants with you maybe you should take the bigger path up.
heres a map.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v691/bert12342004/map/map1.jpg)
you take the big route which is the trail of green.
I hope this helps.
but I will put your name up for this ok.
Any suggestions or ideas for food on this one? Im thinking it could be good to do something like our last christmas dinner where we all bring different items and cook it as a group.
Dibs on carrying up the packet of pepper sauce ;D
I'm bringing the mint sauce.. See earlier thread..
Afraid I'm out for this one. I've got some Scout leader training this weekend and I've took enough time of work so think of me when you are all munching away on campfire food.
I,m gonna take the blue route, they have done cavehill from the castle and loved it, any idea what the weathers to be like as when me and my friend one the mournes 3 weeks ago we had minus five overnight.....

Welcome FerFal!
Christmas camp i carried 30 lbs mash & champ.nearly killed me
They were awesome!!
I will be bringing mini eggs for everyone. I can't bring any actual food for this, due to im already carrying alot, im carrying Easter eggs for the egg hunt, and the egg hunt stuff.
and if I bring my son I will have to carry extra stuff for him, like his sleeping bag and his sleeping mat. so you know thats why I will bring mini eggs.

Why don't you just bring lots of small tokens that people try to find instead of actual Easter eggs? That way you go out and hide tokens and then depending on how many people find they get awarded an egg?
Example, colour some lollipop sticks bright colours, or bits of red ribbon, and hide them around the place, instead of the eggs, then people redeem the tokens for eggs after its over? Would that not reduce the amount you would have to carry up with you?
not really, I have little plastic eggs which I will be hiding. but I am bringing up a bag of 6 easter eggs. which I will have to carry up by hand.
the plastic eggs will fit in my rucksack along with the foil mini eggs that will go in them.
but like I said I will bring a couple of packets of mini eggs aswell.
if my gf comes with me, she could bring tins of beans up. but not promising anything.

I am not bringng Mushy Peas this time, after carrying them up last time, Not one was opened. :-\
All he is saying, is give peas a chance... ;)
I am really looking forward to going on this.
I hope people bring a saw, so they can help cut of dead trees. for the fire.
I looking forward to this too.
im going to start the egg hunt about 5pm that ok with everyone?
Hope you all have a great time, im working the weekend of this camp. Have fun all.
Woohoo 5 more sleeps to go, I think the kids are more excited than me lol...
Definitely in two minds about this.
I do have the time off - switching my ISP and alas can't work.
But do not have my new gear just yet - I doubt my PHD bag will arrive quick enough and/or my Vango 250 will keep the warmth in (definitely didn't at Meelmore August the year before last).
I'm working this weekend but still plan to camp. Should be up on Saturday night around 6 ish. Keep me a seat by the fire and have a glass of red ready for me...
Im bringing my 11 year old nephew on this trip, just wondering if anyone else's kids are around that sort of age?
Can anyone anticipate what the temperature will be overnight on Saturday?
If the temperature seems to be somewhat reasonable, count me in, that is, if you guys have me? :D
By the looks of the weather report it will be quite mild. Your sleeping bag will be grand.
Count me in then. :)
EDIT: What would you like me to bring? Bearing in mind I'll be bringing it all the way from Ballymena and don't want it to go off. Lol.
Yourself, your own food and preferred tipple of your choice! Lol
group dinner we will do, as I did do a list on the front of this topic. but you can add your own to the list.
Quote from: TypoOn on March 27, 2012, 02:12:53 PM
Are we doing a group dinner or are we doing our own? I'm easy either way.
I'm going individual, Steak with all the trimmings a rabbit and cookies and custard for desert. Yes please.
In fact, rechecking the list I will bring something. Two tins of Mushy peas, not unless someone recommends bringing more? And a packet or two of Smash (our cupboard is full of them).
To my mind, it is sensible to go individual then you are guaranteed of a feed when you want it. I do like the idea of a group meal and this was fine at Christmas but looking at the potential number of people we would not manage to feed everyone with the little amount food people are bringing up to share. Dishing out meals at Christmas was not the smoothest even though we were well organised and there is the financial incentive aspect too, inevitably, the minority is hit with the big costs.
I'll be bringing my own food too, I was only bringing the mint sauce for the lamb but Dowser isn't going now so it's a steak for me!
ok no problem, your own meal it is.

Me too starting at 9..
Ahhh, once again failure to put something up on my board has resulted in me making other plans. Sorry guys, I cant make this camp. I'm quite annoyed at myself. Anyway you all have a great time like I know you will.
1 more sleep to go, am I to take it that this is just a self catering trip, that makes it easier for me feeding the kids, I will still bring 2 wee bottles o homemade wine, c u all tomorrow G... 8) 8) 8)
Yep it's BYO food and booze. Looking forward to meeting you all.
I'm not able to join ya, but up at Shannaghmore so if we get the chance for a wee mosey out, might try and call round
If not have a good'un and enjoy! Hope the weather holds out
Hud
looking cloudy with light winds and an overnight min of 4, pretty perfect weather for a forest camp i say :)
Whoop, whoop!! What is everyone bringing to drink?
Oh il need to think about this, err err err oh okay then wine!! ;D
im having WKD red. ;D
Me too Rumblebum... What are you supping?

anyone that needs to contact me tommorrow, heres my mobile number 07907766757
you can reach me anytime after 9am tommorrow.
is there a planned time for the easter egg hunt?
I think it was around 5 oclock, why are you hungry already :D
gonna sneak up early and steal all the eggs ;D ;D ;D ;D
yes the doctor has confirmed a 5PM kick off for the egg hunt, also he mentioned there's a lot of rubbish up there so if people could maybe bring an extra rubbish bag we could have a spring clean :) if i can get the car up there i could bring all the rubbish down
also the downhill donard race is on today, starts at 3pm, winners expected in donard car park by 3.15pm, so if you see a runner stand outta his way :o
Having a pint in O'hares before we walk up that ruddy path.
Enjoy the camp. I live v close to Donard park but alas I don't have a tent...yet. Will be seeking advice on a suitable one soon. 8)
Me and my Brother wants to thank everyone that came.

I had another great wee nite with the gang last night, Paul and Graeme it was good to meet you and hope to see you again soon and a big thanks goes to Thomas and Robert who organised the trip and hid the easter eggs, where i couldnt find them mind you!
Cheers one and all :)
Yep t'was a good wee night.. When I got home from work today I ended up having a wee snooze. Must be getting too old for this marlarky!
Glad everyone enjoyed themselves.
Tell me more about this order from the fire brigade to put the fire out. I was wondering if there was going to be a fire or not, I thought you might have avoided it due to the recent forest fires.
Well done to Wild Camper and Dr Who for tidying the site up. It's a shame others are so inconsiderate.
Looked like a fun camp.

Well done for the tidy up guys,also putting on an Easter egg hunt for the kids,the fire brigade were probably just being extra careful ,karma awarded :)
Well done Thomas & Robert, great job on the Easter Egg Hunt my daughter really enjoyed it, and extra karna for the cleanup too, sorry i couldn't make it back up for the evening festivities but a bunch of friends arrived when i got home and we ended up in the pub (in front of a roaring fire ;D ) i would have got more sleep if i had stayed in donard forest! shamara i hope you didn't miss your supper too much, i owe you one.

I think the fire brigade might have turned a blind eye as we had our fire under control and secure inside the rocks. But there was 3 young polish teens camping a few yards from us with a unsafe fire and no water. So they could not tell one group to put the fire out and not ours, Also I understand the extra caution they taking due to the Lastest forest fire, Thanks to some arseholes. If I caught the losers that started that fire, I would serve them the only justice they understand. They ruin it for everyone else.
Was good to put my foot through the door so to speak and meet you all. :) I definitely enjoyed myself, and echoing everyone elses comment - shame about the fire.
Plus - it was good to properly try out my new gear for once.
Great pictures all, and I'm definitely looking forward to the next. :)
