    The "01.01.2013" date print in the clip does cause me to ponder "Irish Humour.".............Not that it really matters. >)

    Which one of the 9 Glens"

    Every time I replace the spare battery when I'm hunting it resets the date & time, so I have given up fixing it.

    On the 2nd day we started off in a wood close to glenshesk, we then moved to the foot of glendun. I'm from a village called cushendall which lies at the foot of glenballyemon. But I hunt in all of the 9 glens.
