Hope to catch you up there? And the weather stays like it is.

Hey Lenny

My Babysitter has let me down badly and I can't get anyone to mind my kids for me on Saturday.  Doesn't look like I'm getting to Bearnagh Saturday night... I'm completely gutted... I was really looking forward to this one!

Another time maybe  >:(

Looks like I might be back on for this... A new baby sitter has stepped up to the ocky.  Just need to clear it with the Trouble and Strife.  Haven't told her I'm going to Romania next Tuesday either, so fingers crossed.


I could be camping in the garden tonight ::)

Weather look cracking this weekend ....even with doing the iWait gig on Friday/Sat, you guys are giving me the itch. May just find somewhere to hole up and get some sleep then head up to Bearnagh in the afternoon/evening. (if you see a tall guy wearing a grey baseball cap...you've found me)

Big E,

I'll probably be at Hares Gap till about 10 or 11am sleeping, after marshalling the Iplod through the night. I know that makes me sound like a lazy git, but there's not a lot of point setting off to early as I don't want to be sitting on top of Bearnagh from 3pm, twiddling my thumbs till it gets dark.

This is a new route for me so I don't know how long it's gonna take.  I would like to be Summiting Bearnagh then dropping down to the Tors, to set up camp around 5 or 6pm. 

I've a good set of Binos with me so I'll keep an eye out for you around Hares Gap, before I set off on my route.  If you can give me a bit of a description of what you'll be wearing it will avoid me approaching randoms, like some sort of Mourne Prostitute!

I'll be sticking to the route I posted as closely as possible, so if your late getting to Hares Gap, you might pick me up elsewhere.

Hopefully see you Saturday.

Throw a bit of extra food in your ruc and give in to the itch.  May as well make the most of this weather...

Maybe see you on Bearnagh Saturday night then..!

Extra food and spare set of clothes packed in the car, will do a quick change/resupply once I've had my free breakfast and moved the car a bit closer to Bearnagh ;)

It's just a question of where I'm going to get some sleep, I fancy a lazy afternoon somewhere quiet in the shade of the tarp.

Hi Guys

I will be leaving Belfast Between 3-4 depending on how long it takes the wife to get back from the hair dressers. I will be at Meelmore Lodge between 4-5.

Hope to see some of you there.

If you want my mobile please PM me
