Firstly, I'm sorry that the Thursday Evening trips have tailed off over the last couple of weeks :flowers: .....pressure of work and everyone generally being busy I'm afraid. 😞

Ok then....is any one available on Thursday evening this week? I fancied a return trip to Pantywrach, Penrhyndeudraeth to have a go at an SRT pitch that is begging to be explored. This pitch is one that was looked at but not explored when some of you visited a few weeks ago whilst I was on holiday. I'm told it's well worth a look 😉

I'm available, as is Simonrl. Llion this sounds like just your kind of thing :lol: :lol: , hope you're free?! Anyone else? Hymac, Carlin, Willy, Chrisj?

I will be travelling there straight from work in the the Wrexham area, so can make it there by 18.30. Let me know if anyone else fancies it and we'll firm up the arrangements.

Yma O Hyd....

Definitely up for this one :thumbsup: , need to have a mooch round this one anyway on MrFriend's behalf, look for things for him to take pictures of.

Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.

I'll come along for a gentle mooch and to take photos. Anyway, someone needs to keep watch don't they? 😉
Skimble, I can offer a lift if needed.

Ah, yes, you've not seen it yet have you 😉 Hence the unbridled enthusiasm :lol:

Do I need to bring the drill. I don't think anybody who looked at it liked the look of the bolts.

Mind you, they're the least of your worries...

I'm not very good at posting up links to maps....ahem, simonrl could you please stick up a link to google earth or some such technical trick :flowers: :angel:

chrisj....go into Penrhyn from your direction, turn right in the square, up over the Ffestiniog railway, down the other side look out for a sign on the right for a hotel and.....dammit I'll PM you my mobile number and you can call me if your lost :lol: :lol:

Shall we meet up in the car park near the square in Penrhyn? Most folks probably know where that is?

I saw it a few years ago but don't remember it being that bad, but then we all know how "selective" my memory can be 😉
I've seen the recent photo though 😮 :lol:

Lets meet in the car park in Penrhyndeudraeth? Head into Penrhyn, to the square in the centre of town. Turn opposite the "Griffin" pub. Past the spar, go 100yds, car park on the right hand side :thumbup: Call or text if you're lost. Hope you can all make it 🙂
