Summer Outing – Knocksink Woods

Club Outing – Giant’s Causeway
Well, the (not so) intrepid seven were driven north with some degree of trepidation and dread! We had a driver who spent much of the outbound trip regaling his (captive) audience with tales of terror and protest, of oppression and unrest. Anyway, we braved the border...
