The wild weather brings a mixed blessing: lots of trash washed down the river to Milltown; but it may also restrict the clean-up area on Saturday. We will go ahead with the clean-up regardless of the weather - but the wilder it is, the more restricted we will be in accessing the river.
Given the like crappy weather - dress accordingly! I will bring litter grabbers along and some gloves, but if you have your own, please bring them along as An Taisce ran out of it supplies by the time we were registered. Also bring wellingtons and waders if you have them.
I plan to arrive at the Dropping Well car park on corner of Milltown and Lower Chruchtown Roads.
Getting there:
Luas: Green line - get off at Milltown - go down the hill and turn right - Dropping Well 200 m up Milltown Road
Bus: No. 61 from the city - stops right out fron of the Dropping Well
Car: See attached map or link above
Given the weather, I expect we will spend no more than 3 hours wandering along the river - so if you come after 10 am - you should find us downstream working towards Clonskeagh bridge.
My contact number is 0870 6333 77 if you have any questions, otherwise will check this email up until the morning of the clean-up.
If you think I have missed something - please drop me a line! Feel free to forward this email to anyone you know who has expressed an interest in joining us.
Many thanks again,
Dru
