Cwmorthin this week. Depending who's about, there could be a choice of a gentle wander or a continuation of the usual (regulars will know what I mean, irregulars can find out!). :thumbup:
So you might want to bring harness and cowstails.

Usual time, 6:15pm at the Cwmorthin car park. Everyone welcome. See you there! :thumbsup:

Having never dangled from a piece of rope in my life, let alone a cows tail :blink:l!! I'd have no idea what to do,,,.(Although I did buy a harness with good intent some years ago with the intention of combating a fear of heights).. So, not to spoil the fun I think I'll wait on a wander for the time being.
Hwyl ar y nos.

Thanks to all and sundry for a fab Thursday Night:What nice unordinary people 😉. Although I was a tad late, sorry:-[. Don't know why I didn't tag along sooner... Need to see more of Cwmorthin but would appear that I will have to bite the bullet and practice hanging of a cows tail! :blink:
Thanks again& hopefully make it (on time) for the next Thursday Nighters. (Shame it's not every night,,,)

Good to see that you're all well and having fun:thumbsup:

I may see if I can make it this coming Thursday evening. Just got rid of the 6th skip from the front drive and have a fully functioning bathroom! Oh, the sheer luxury! Only another 8 rooms to go and my life is my own again. This week has been taken up with boiler relocation and pipework rerouting. Carving the kitchen up today, new cooker tomorrow which should result in a happy Mrs Sinker which will help the overall situation immeasurably ;D
She's still asking why we have a 20' shipping container in the front drive.... Its just a "man thing".:lol:

See you all soon 😎

I'm green with envy hearing about that shipping container!
Glad to hear it's all coming together.

Nice to meet you Jason. If you feel like showing us the way around Seler Du one Thursday evening, it's a place that I for one would like to see.

Ha! The shipping container is newly resprayed in British Racing Green as it happens. Thought the neighbours might not notice if it was tree coloured.:lol: You can have it when I'm done with it! One trip from China to Liverpool, emptied in Manchester and then straight into my garden. :

Seler Du yes please!:)

Tend to agree. If mines were art I'd consider this one a Rembrhant. I have a particular attachment to it as it was one of my first. Took my virginity as it were 😞.
Not much there or very vast, a few nice wriggles and a pleasant atmosphere. I keep referring to it as "pretty".. Is something wrong here:blink:!!! And yes: if you're tall as I am not, knee pads and stooping are the order of the day/ evening!

If anyone fancies a wander I'd be happy to jog along.

Er, by that last remark I meant in the underworld exploration capacity....
