Yea I'm thinking of cooking it at home, splitting it down the middle and finishing it off over the fire buddy.

Looking forward to this. Think me and oisin were considering leaving off cup a soups and smash this weekend but unsure now youve said about chicken .

The Hound hopes to be there plus 3. These hammocks need an outing and as I am now jobless there is no excuse. :D

Me and oisin will be arriving about 4ish as he has to go to work in the morning but do you guys know where abouts you will be? or will be someone be able to meet us somewhere. You guys probably have the best idea :)

Really looking forward to this now, just been made redundant so a bit of me time is called for. Work life balance has not been what you'd call ideal so maybe this is a time to re evaluate.

Anyone want to buy a car, jet ski, scooter  ;)

Hope to get up early Saturday, not our usual time whey hey freedom.

What's needed for cooking, do we have a list.

Here's a map of where we'll be:

Basically from Donard Car Park in Newcastle walk up the Glen River as if you were going to climb Slieve Donard, then as you come out of the trees you'll see a bit of a run down gate and the Ice House on the left hand side of the river, we'll be in the Forest on the right hand side of the river. Once you walk in you'll see us. If you want more info and/or my mobile number send me a PM.

What time is everyone heading up, are we meeting in the car park at any particular time.  I was thinking off being at the carpark for about 10am??

Spoke to the boss and she says I can go early, so myself and the young lad will be at Donard carpark about 10am.  If any one else wants to meet me there and walk up with us then just lookout for the silver Kia Sportage with the big roof box.  See you then. Brian
