Yeah had a great time, and its always nice to get to test out a new piece of kit, Got the Mld Duomid for my Lands end - John O'groats walk in april, was really impressed by the space and quality of this shelter. Thanks to Jason for helping with the canoes and ditching me to go rapid running:canoe::

Nice one lads, I was down there a couple of weeks ago in a monsoon

I think we saw the same deer too, just after the big house?

The Duo's looking good Col, happy with it so far?

No lens at all ,all the pics were taken with a fujifilm xp10 ,the close shots of the deer ,well i was just that close , about 10 feet away


Jason

When we were there earlier in the year the deer were so tame that the kids got out the van and could walk within a couple of feet of them .

Nice pics, looks like you had a good trip. :)

Has the sewage smell gone from down there? It wasn't great in the summer.

Looks like a hooly weekend troops, good time and great pics. Looked like small measures of Jack D compared to Jinsins stainless mug at Glentrool.
Jinsin please bring it to Glentrool in April.
