Brings back nice memories, only climbed errigal once at 7.30pm on a january evening, 3 steps from the car up to my knees
in the bog after that who cares about being wet. At the top the rain and and hail was coming up at us and the ridge was a
bit hairy but it was fun. Then back to the youth hostel then out for drink!!. In bed around 2.30 out walking again at 9 till 4pm
it was a nice way to get rid of the hangover then more drink (see the patern here), I would love to be able to do this again but
i,ve been suffering with CFS for the past 3 years :'(      Billy

There is pleasure in the pathless woods, There is rapture on the lonely shore, There is society where none intrudes, By the deep sea and the music in its roar; I love not man the less, but Nature more

Looks like a top weekend though!
