Title: Dublin 28/11/12
Post by: Dave on November 30, 2012, 05:09:59 PM

On Wednesday I made my usual pilgrim down to DUB, arriving well before sunrise. Slightly cold but the walk to the spotting place on Swords road from the Airport Terminal warmed me up. There was a large wall of clouds along the East, presumably over the sea, which failed to move during day, however thankfully it stayed clear over the airport all day.  8)

Thanks guys. Don, maybe I'll see you at some point this week due to the OCSE aircraft arrivals? I'm aiming on going down again during the week.


Angry, it actually wasn't as cold as I thought it would be. Got the usual cold toes but the sun shining did bring a bit of warmth.  8)
