Nice to meet you both too gaz, Chloe is a trooper, karma to you both, you did brilliantly!

Was a brilliant camp: good to meet all you guys! Fair play to Chloe for trooping on against appalling conditions! .... Oh and by the way: "we're not the martials: it's about 50ft that way!" (in-joke)  :)
If you're thinking... "wait this might be a bit dangerous".... you're probably on the way to a good adventure!

Good work Chloe! and top effort everyone else for going up in those conditions. Good to see some JD/epic steak action keeping it real  8)

Only realised from your photos that I passed WhoRya and Rumblebum today - sorry I didn't say hello lads, was deep in the zone all day!

Looks like a good one. I was sorely tempted but a quick look at the weather quickly persuaded me that a night on the Jameson's in Coyles would be far more appealing.

Big well done to Chloe & wee gaz,not very many nine year olds summit camp,she never complained once,double karma awarded  :)

Spud

Some pics I took on my phone, really top night guys, thanks for your company!

Glad you all had a good night, it was good to see a few friendly faces when we got up Bearnagh.

I didn't notice you in passing twenty, you probably went past in a flash.  The "zone" was a crowded place yesterday  ;D

Yep it was great to see so many friendly faces on Bearnagh (and you managed to stall whorya and rumblebum long enough for me to catch them), glad you were all packed up and ready to go as i would have been so tempted to sit and chat for half an hour, then my legs would have seized up  :)
think outside, no box required

Funniest part of the whole night -

Oisin and I were only a few feet either side of the fire, - the wind blowing embers over my way pretty much constantly.

I have bits missing in my stubble from where the embers hit me.
Time to shave I think.

Gonna get a stove with a remote gas connection that sits a bit more flat (primus omni maybe) - I was gutted when that lovely custard fell over.

Spud

I know I was gutted for yous, that was bad luck! I know it's not everyone's choice, but I find it hard to beat the trangia, it's never let me down, and it would be the very job for your curries, and as you have seen, it'll handle a steak too!  ;D
