In case I don't make it. There was no rope around the tree on the entrance when we were there on Saturday, so it'll need a sling to be retrieved or a bit of tat.

I have a sling from work that has been "retired" at 12 months old so I was going to leave that there with a steel crab.

Sorry folks, I'm not going to be able to make this one (again). Caroline has to work this evening so I need to be here for the children.
Have fun and enjoy 'the shower'.

Will a stealth approach be required, or is the cover of darkness sufficient?

Wet? Not as bad as when we were there over New Year.

New Ground? Yes. We went to the Tyn Y Coed because Cobden's was closed. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheers guys. That's probably the best mid week trip that I've been on a while and Charlotte loved it too.

Thanks for being so patient with her on pitches, i know it's crap waiting about when it's cold. :thumbup:

Will be attending another one soon :thumbsup:
