    Default Finnarts Bay

    Had a great time at Finnarts Bay just outside Cairnryan at the weekend with the Scotland south brigade. I think we have all slightly forgotten about the forum since our wee Facebook phase, including myself so I thought I would post some of my pictures from the weekend on here for everyone to see.

    The company was great and thanks so much to all who went couldn't ask for a better bunch of friends and a better place, best weekend this year

    Obligatory landy pics ...... And Col playing in the sea







    Friday night chilling in the good weather, along with the midges!



    What's could be in here??



    Foooooooood, I had a total foody weekend and loved it roast chicken and potatoes and gravy.



    Socialising



    Stenna Line Ferry coming from Ireland



    Tony found a friend





    Saturdays breakfast





    Colin going to the rescue!



    Saturday's dinner



    My mum and step dad came to see us but they ended up on the wrong beach so that seemed like a good excuse for me and Colin to paddle over and see them in the sunset



    And the on Saturday night the Jack was flowing and we fancied a dance so....

    Midge Canny Get In!!

    Yeah Scotty, best trip this year, even if my landy roof is well trashed along with my liver, was also impressed by the huge amount of bushcraft practiced as usual lol.

    I was especially fond of the cucumber sandwiches and dandelion tea.

    For a minute there I thought the breakfast was going to be wabbit shaped. Looks like I missed a good one.
    The above may be poppycock. If it sounds like advice or that I am knowledgeable, that is purely coincidental. Caveat emptor.

    Great weekend, never a dull moment.

    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    Haha, yeah i noticed that myself jason, but it was purely a bushcraft thing, i was intent on making a water sump as we were running out of water and i wanted to save all the lads lives.....ok maybe not, but youve seen my dancing style, it was a miracle i stayed on the landy roof, never mind putting a wee dent in it lol.

    P.S Your not a fatty mate, as Campbell says "your just plump and had too much breakie that day " lol
