    It's getting to that time of the year again - it feels cold enough for snow tonight. Anyone recognise this place?

    It's looking towards Glenveagh but not sure exactly where, is that a lake in the foreground ( Lough Fern? )

    Well done! South West of Lough Fern, it's Lough Akibbon, looking across to Gartan Graveyard, with the top of Errigal peeking up just left of centre. This is a similar shot without the snow.

    :) Well, it was used for soccer and as a race track for quads that winter. It was frozen solid!

    Bah, I was going to guess Ards, but chickened out!


    Whereabouts is that? Looks gorgeous (in an area that ONLY has gorgeous beaches!!)

    Ah..... found it, I think.... is it on the way from the carpark, out along the boardwalk?

    Park at Ards Friary and take the path north along side the water. You can go down onto the beach and on over to Ards Forest Park.

    Sliabh Snaght ( looks like hill above Clonmany on the left and in the distance is the bay at Isle of Doagh )

    Haven't a clue where it is but I'm curious about the wooden (?) slats. What are they for?

    That is here outside Ardara - https://goo.gl/maps/1ghou6waXBv62N6J7

    Think those slats are to stop slipping on the slip

    It is indeed, a nice view the other direction but that would have been too easy...

    If anyone else fancies adding a picture, work away as I can't think of one now that would be a challenge.

    In all my 35+ years holidaying up around there, I never knew that was there.
