Fort Bills 2 Subs

[Johnny Corbett]

Had a couple of hours spare after dropping the girls off at the swimming pool so i headed for these two Subs. I left from the viewpoint and in fifteen minutes i was at the summit of Drium na h-Earba. A path takes you all the way up. The path continues from the summit, which i stayed on before making my way down by the fence line towards the farm. I crossed the road and made my way over a couple of fields, heading for the ridge to Bidein Bad na h-Lolaire. This is a fine ridge with a few ups and downs and on a better day would have been a great viewpoint. I headed directly towards the car from the summit down some steep gound then over rough ground before getting back to the start. What i saw when i got back to the car enraged me. At the picnic table was a pile of discarded rubbish from Mcdonalds and sitting in a car was a family eating a Mcdonalds. I can't be sure it was theirs but it did start to rain on my way back and i came to the conclusion they were eating outside the car then returned when the rain came on, leaving their rubbish at the picnic table but thats roughnecks for you.
