Ken how far is the pub? :)
At least it won’t be 5 below this time :)
Mark we were told the last time the pub was 200 yds down the road but it was a good half hour walk
It’s probably at least half an hour again this time. The hostel is quite a distance outside Skibbereen.

pretty sure our transport is sorted for this one – I’m just hoping she won’t let me down last minute :/

The orgainising committee :D has been aware of this situation for some time now, and they will be suggesting (and
perhaps organising) some form of a local taxi service be employed, in order that no drinking time is lost, OR that our
little legs are strained un-necessarily!SO, RELAX! :D :D :D :D

Folks, we are getting near (I know the excitement is at fever pitch now :D )
And apologies for the column mis-alignments – it adds an extra little challenge!
The first list are the atendees and current accomodation bookings.
PLEASE confirm if there is a ? opposite your name, and also let me know if you want
any changes. MUST HEAR FROM YOU BY NEXT TUESDAY.The second list is a draft itinerary – including some activities on the Sunday – ZoundZ is helping
with this. PLEASE let me know of any questions AND suggestions – it is only a draft.FINALLY, transport wise on Saturday, I need one lift from Rosscarbery to Glen on the Saturday for
ZoundZ-I need a volunteer.
Any other transport requirements (excluding mand), please make yourselves known!Thanks
