This weekend - Glencoe/Pol Dubh 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
OK. Great to see folk last night and that there are so many people interested in getting away.

Interested parties; Scott and Nigel, Ewan and Lewis, Ian and Mhairi, Adrian and family, John, Jim and I. Stu and Jeanie are undecided (possibly Skye?) although best of the sun (and the craic ) seems to be forecast for Coe area

Talk was of Agag's Groove, Shackle Route, Fracture, and the mighty Bludger's Rev. It would also be good to check out Gearr Aonach (maybe Sunday??) but we do have the fall back of zooming up to Pol Dubh if the clag is down.

As you know the cottage is booked and there are probably too many people heading up to use the loft comfortably. As such we're heading for the good old Red Squirrel campsite. Other sites were rightly challenged as being too far from the pub.

I will leave it to the Stirling area folk to organise their own travel but John and I will be leaving NQ about 7 aiming to get pitched before ten and down to the Clach for a pint. I will phone Lewis today to ensure they know the plans.

As to getting pitched together; if John and I are first in then look out for the Silver Saab (AKH reg) - we'll try to find a spot with space for more folk. I can send a wee text out to tell folk...perhaps others could do the same if they're up first?

Here's to a good weekend (starting with a confirmation from MWIS at 5pm).

See you at all the Clachaig .

Thought that would be the case! Sounds like Polldubh is out.

The campsite could be awful?! Maybe more likely to be a breeze camped outside the Kingy?

John, Ian, Scott or Nigel.
Does anyone have a spare pair of ropes? I have a pair but if we are going to split the young tigers up we'll need another pair as they only have a single.

Me and Nigel myself will both take ropes and the Euan and Lewis can use mine for the weekend.
