    So I've been toying with this idea for awhile of a meet in Kilkenny, I've mentioned it to Al and Ken so I thought I'd post here and see who's interested.

    Basically aiming for a Co Kilkenny meet, locations include -
    - Kells Priory (this is what it looks like), its a massive walled abbey
    - Old mill which has been recently restored (across the river from Kells Priory)
    - Old Round tower (up the road from Kells)...might be a little small and dark
    - Visit to Kilkenny City, places of interest include Kilkenny Castle & St. Canice's Cathedral (includes much nicer round tower), might also be a nice place for street photography for anyone interested

    Kell's is approx 15min from Kilkenny City or 40min from Waterford City, there's plenty of B&B's and Days Hotel in both Waterford and Kilkenny so accommodation shouldn't be an issue for anyone also there's a bus and train service to both Waterford & Kilkenny from Dublin.

    Maybe hoping for late May early June, possible dates include:
    31st May
    7th June
    14th June
    (there all Saturdays)

    So who's interested?

    You should have made it a poll - yes, no, maybe.

    I'd be interested, depending on when.

    Yes, if the date suits. It'll be my first boards meet up. :) I had hoped the Clare Glens would work out but the interest seemed to have dropped.:(

    I've had some very important stuff pop-up lately which has to be dealt with and sorted asap and I'm not to sure how long it will be tilll things return to norm and I have freetime at the weekends, looks like it might need to be pushed more towards July now because of this :(
