Location ; Rams Island Lough Neagh

Timings  ; Sat boat leaves @1400hrs to island and return on Sun @ approx 1200hrs.

Date ; 18th March

Prices ; Adult  £10  Kids   £5

This includes return boat trip to the island and secure parking, there is no running water on the island but if needed plenty of Lough water however it is advised to filter before drinking, from the dock to the camp area is a short 5 min walk.  It is also child friendly and anyone wishing to bring kids may do so, the area is good for both tents and hammocks.

Me and two of the kids are hoping to join you all for this.

Don't be booking me on the ferry though, as I'm hoping to scoot over on my own wee boat.  I've got a baby due in 5 weeks and may need to make a hasty retreat to the mainland  :o

The two I'll be bring will be Jay (10) and Lucy (9).  Just be warned, I have another due very soon and may have to pull out at short notice.  I'll drop you a PM if it looks like that may happen, but from what I hear, the kids will love the island no matter whether there's other kids there or not.

Hopefully see you soon

I pm'd you last week to check if you were bringing your girls again, I'm thinking of bringing my girl if there's other kids going.
