Club Outing to Dingle Dec 28th
There will be a club outing to Dingle on December 28 .We will leave from the Arches Mallow at 6AM . The plan for the day will be to visit various locations on the Dingle Penninsula doing our best to include a sunrise and sunset . It will be a long day and would be a good idea to bring a packed lunch . An umbrella , spare clothes + wellies might also come in handy.
As always outings are subject to weather conditions and if the weather is poor for Dec 28 , we might reschedule to Dec 27
I will post on the website by Dec 26 of our plans for the outing , hope to see a good attendance and wishing you all a Happy and Peaceful Christmas , Rodney
