I recently checked out the Guinness Book of Records tallest Bedded Christmas Tree, which is in Cragside, Northumberland and stands at 44.7 mtrs. NT Cragside was the first house in the world powered by electricity. For their tree to count as a Christmas tree it must have lights from top to bottom and it even has bow decorations. Now that's what I call one impressive Christmas tree 🎄🦌🎄⛄️🎄🎅

Enjoyed a hike up Lugnaquilla this weekend from the Glen of Imaal...with more misty views from the summit....seems to be a common theme at the moment. Took in some great views below the summit section though....anyone want to let us know about their outdoor activities this bank holiday weekend 🥾🥾🌫🧭🗺⛰️

Took in Mullaghcleevaun over the weekend...once again with misty views from the summit, and met members of Scouting Ireland along the way, they were hosting an event for scouts from all over the country, with conditions providing a good opportunity for navigation training. For the scouts, youth is definitely not wasted on the young 🥾🥾🌫🧭🗺
