Hello Gary I'm George.  Nice to hear the word is spreading.  I've never walked in Donegal before but have driven about it.  The area looks fantastic and wild.  Hope to get over there soon.

Regards.

Hi Gary

I was up in Glenveagh a few weeks back, its a beautiful part of the world. Going back again in september/ october for one of the ranger led walks for the red deer rut.
