Brenig 2004
Now that we have sorted out Andrew's Scotland Holidays, can we give some
thought for a suitable date for Brenig. As the last one was so successful, I can't wait to return with my mate Alec so that we can show you how to fish it!*****. Cheers & Tight Lines, Reg (Diamonds) Every Day Is A Bonus! Make The Most Of It! http://www.sweetmore.fsnet.co.uk |

Make The Most Of It! http://www.sweetmore.fsnet.co.uk Diamonds! Good to hear from you! Take it as read that as we speak plans are afoot to organise a Brenig gathering in the summer. Either Andy or Dave will be putting something to the NG soon I hope. Whatever happens I look forward to our yearly whinge about all things in general and hope we can capitalise on our success of last year against all odds and the experts advice :-) Cheers, Alec -- Alec and Valerie Powell Watlington Oxon.

Hi All,
Well.... As Alec indicated, we have started to look at our Annual Gathering and what has become over the past 4 years, the "Pilgrimage to Brenig". Unfortunately, the only period that Alec Powell, Dave Lane and I can make this year is the Friday 30th Saturday 31st July. I have enquired as to the water and boat availability at Brenig and it's fully booked for that weekend. Indeed, the ONLY available dates are 17/18 July, 7/8 August and 4/5 September. As I said, the three of us just can't make those weekends. I have looked at an alternative venue called Cwellyn. It's a large water with stunning scenery, almost at the foot of Snowden and is a wild Brown Trout water but also has Arctic Char, Seatrout and Salmon if you can find 'em! The fishing is owned by Seiont Gwyrfai & Llynfi Fishing Society. Prices for fishing vary from £8 per day for Cwellyn plus a boat at £12 per day plus the hire of an electric motor if required. However, if you check out their web site http://www.hgt.gwynedd.gov.uk/sg/Default.htm and follow the links, you'll see they have multiple waters and a daily permit to fish all of them is £15 which includes their Rivers and stocked lake for Rainbows. All are fairly close to Cwellyn, so quite a big choice. The accommodation is good at Cwellyn and details can be found he http://www.snowdoninn.co.uk/index.asp Again, follow the links to see all the options as fishing permits, boats etc are all booked here. The Cwellyn Arms is only a short stroll from the lake. I phoned the Cwellyn Arms and all options for the bunk house, farm house and camping site are available for 30/31 July. Only 1 room left for B&B in the pub, but that may not be an issue. The proprietor told me that the farm house is available and has multiple options available in terms of room availability and breakfast is available in the pub. The price for the farm house accommodation is £95 per night for 4 people. For 5 its £110, for 6 its £120 and so on a sliding scale. Rooms vary from twins, doubles etc. The other option is the bunk house, but it is an open area with multiple bunks sleeping 22, unlike Glan Aber with only two bunks per room. So unless we had 22 people, we may have to share with other guests. Some of us did a mini gathering here some 4 years ago and enjoyed ourselves, so it's not completely new. Let me know what you think (via this group) to this as a possibility and I would suggest that if it's a goer we need to get definite numbers and should try and book up very quickly. All the best Andy Lawson |

Hi all, I'm really sorry that I have been unable to contribute to all this for a while - but I've been up to my ears in life/work/house renovation and so on....and my grateful thanks to Andy for doing all of this research. It was me that suggested Cwellyn, as it is a fantastic, beautiful spot, and a fine alternative to Brenig, as long as you're not after stockie- bashing. You will have access to a number of waters, including Llyn Padarn, right by Llanberis. Andy mentioned the boats, but you can also go float-tubing if insane. There is also a campsite for the hardier souls, should this be a help in trying to sort accomodation. We had a mini gathering there a few years back, and you'll find a couple of pages about this at: http://xavier.bangor.ac.uk/dlane/cwellyn/ thanks again Adny, cheers Dave -- Literacy Support Software from: Xavier Educational Software Ltd School of Psychology, University of Wales Bangor http://xavier.bangor.ac.uk/ ....

thanks again Adny, Yes, thanks Adny :-) Sounds great to me. I will take the option of camping this year I think, (just to disprove the rumour that I'm a "southern softie" as some people would suggest!) (No names - no pack drill:-) and it keeps me away from Adny's snoring. I know that Dan Porter will be joining us, albeit for some walking/photography, rather than fishing, so we have at least 4 definites. I believe there is a possibility of some of us travelling on the Thursday so we could get two days fishing in. Reg: want to share a tent? Cheers, Alec -- Alec and Valerie Powell Watlington Oxon.
