I love the area, and usually spend some time in Betws-y-Coed round Sept.

So, Maybe I'll be there, but I'm not fussed on fishing much these days.

If you see a small semi-geodesic tent in the foyer when you arrive - it
may be me :-)

If Dave can set up his Barbie in the lounge and Alec can bring more of
those delicious ribs - I'll definitely come.

We pigged out at Cwellyn eh?

This years gathering - Cwellyn this year?
 
On Sun, 5 Feb 2006, W. D. Grey, gave forth these words of wisdom:

Actually Bill I enjoyed that weekend immensely. We didn't catch any
fish, (nice walk along the lake though!), and the weather left a bit to
be desired but apart from the noisy kids it was worth doing I think.
Andy obviously enjoyed chatting up the young ladies and showing them how
to light a fire, (NO! Not light HIS fire - he's too old for that sort of
thing.)
It's got me thinking into maybe doing something similar in August.
Would there be any takers?

er- less of the 'we' please....iirc Andy had a couple of roach

and the weather left a bit to be desired


it couldn't posibly be that hot again...

I'm up for it :+)

Incidentally - for the last couple few months there has been an outbreak
of cryptosporidium in the drinking water supplied to a large area
around here - with Cwellyn being identified as the source. So as
long as you don;t drink the water, you'll be fine.

Bill - glad you enjoyed the 'tent' evening, I will be sure to bring it
again! And the bbq :+)


Piccies from the weekend are still up at:

cheers all

Hi Dave,

I'm damned sure the four of us would never have got into MY tent :-)

Alec's tent had room only for a fly rod and a whippet :-)

Hmmm.... but I wonder if the washing facilities are safe now? Then again,
were they in the first place? ;o)

I don't know if I can make it yet as hols haven't been planned, but
certainly sounds like a plan.

If this idea gets off the ground, does it have to be Cwellyn ?

I have another small tent for eating.
