Bung your kit in the car and meet us there, the last one was some serious banter

True. I predict a high degree of awesomeness. (and meat)

Speaking of meat, what's everyone bringing foodwise? I was going for ration packs all the way. Then decided I didn't hate myself that much so I'm bringing steak and smash and a rat for breakfast.

I was planning on bringing a few satchets of porridge for the morning but if everybody else is bringing something more extravagent like fake mashed potato and rats ill feel a tad left out, although I might be better off with my porridge than smash  ;)

I'm sticking to the dried stuff... but no doubt I will regret this decision later.  That said, I'm having some steak at home before I leave to fuel me up!  Tastes better over a Trangia though ;)

Matthew

pasta 'n' sauce sauce with some form of meat and porridge for me in the morning, ill try and eat before i leave, I would rather not have to bring my full stove kit... its jet boil time

Just in the door from this now. Really was a fantastic night out, despite galeforce winds for most of the night and the odd "Lucy Come here" and "Lucy go to sleep" just after I'd managed to get to sleep   :D

Was great to meet you all and hopefully see ya's up there again soon.

I think that probably needs some context or your night under a tarp with Jon is sounding rather suspicious :D

I'd a top time too. Knocked off another 2 peaks and learned some serious lessions on putting up tarps in a typhoon and why you should never forget your Trangia wind shield! The quick overnighters are defo a go!!

I saw the clouds come over in Belfast and though of you guys and when the wind picked up. but this morning should of looked good???

It;s pretty bloody warm outside. Think I'm defo going home to bin the down gilllet.

Sometimes looking back on a thread can be so amusing! ;D

Good meet guys, really enjoyed it despite the unexpected weather.  Absolutely knackered now though, I predict some snoozing during the F1 qualifying!
