Clear Out and Lagan Valley

On Friday I meet up with Tim, Glenn and Mark at Tuk Tuk's for Thai food and drinks in the Imperial Bar.

On Saturday Michael arrived on his day trip and after overnight ferry on Friday and the same planned for Saturday night. We made good progress with more clearout and filling a skip with junk in the house. We met with Liz at the Golf Club for dinner in the evening.

On Sunday I drove to the Titanic area and had a nice long cycle along the Lagan Valley as far as Sprucefield. For the most part very nice riverside path with interesting wetland and parkland. Punctured on the way back but a reasonably quick and successful repair. Also had a slow explore around the Titanic zone.

After lunch at Nandos decided to make the most of the clear skies and headed to Divis and Black Mountain - the other big hills overlooking Belfast just South of Cavehill. Parked at the National Trust carpark up in the moorland and then cycled to the two summits.

On Monday I took a bundle of stuff to the charity shop and with the weather not good went spinning in the gym rather than outside. 

On Tuesday did a road trip along the east coast to Newcastle via the Portaferry to Strangford Ferry. It all looked a little bleak under the grey skies.

Final furniture collection by Restore on Wednesday and the ferry and drive home.
