Hi All,

Really enjoyed the trip and it was nice to be able to put some names to faces. Not sure how often I'll get over on Thursdays (didn't get to bed till 01.45 and up at 07.00...)

Special thanks for the excellent cake, I think the two large hunks I devoured kept me going on the drive back 🙂

Cheers,
Dave

Only this one from above, which doesn't show a lot.

I did my best to try rub it off the air receiver, its a lot less worse than it was, doesn't seem to be good paint at least. The one on the old cwm boiler is going to need a bit more elbow grease to get it off, but I dont know if it will be possible without making it obvious something has been rubbed off? :thumbdown:

Was a good trip, was nice to see some new faces too 🙂 thanks for the lift, helmet and guiding around etc 😛 I would have done the abseil but quite a lot of people and didn't want to hold you up

Had a look at Clogwyn y Fuwch again as it's an interesting one, and my choice was a bit limited without a helmet :lol: What's on cards for next week?
