Hi all, my name is Mike Kelly and I live in Skerries, Nth Co Dublin.

I'm a 63 grandad and retired businessman, I served in the UK military (many, many years ago) and have had an on-going love for the outdoors - mountains, kayaking, camping etc.

I plan to introduce my grandkids to more outdoor activities and to share my love and fascination for these activities with them. Equally, I want to challenge myself about what I think I know and I'd like to meet with and to learn from others who have that knowledge and experience. Joining NI-Wild ticks all the boxes for me.

I look forward to meeting you on the outings.

Mike

Thanks all.

Looking forward to it but it'll be difficult convincing a couple of them that electricity doesn't grow on trees and no there isn't anywhere to plug in PS3 etc. :)
