Lough Shannagh trip Friday 25th November.
« on: November 18, 2011 »

I was just thinking of having a quick overnighter to Lough Shannagh next Friday night via Banns road. Might give some of the zephyros purchasers a chance to try them. I was thinking of heading down after work say 5-6 ish.

I should be good for an overnighter on Friday all being well. Lough Shannagh is as good a spot as any to camp, although I'm not sure I fancy the walk in by Banns Road. I've taken that route a couple of times and it's a long trudge up a featureless, rocky double track. Think Trassey Track. That said I'm all out of suggestions for how to get there that doesn't involve a route we've already taken countless times or a needlessly arduous journey...

Not officially, but if you leave a note in your window saying your not coming back until the morning they turn a blind eye.

Lol me too, whole family have had it :(

Now you've got me worried... I'm a bit rumbly myself this morning and I've got a pretty major exam to sit tomorrow at 9:30  :(

Do we want to postpone this event until the NI Wild illness has passed?
