Paul,
Thanks for organising the trip, I know the new paddlers in my group enjoyed the trip and whilst they might have missed out on the seal that your group enjoyed. I think they still got a lot out of the experience and will no doubt look forward to any future opportunties the club may offer. The more experienced paddlers enjoyed the trip as well and the finish with the warm showers and changing rooms were well recieved by all.

A Massive thankyou to everyone who made this a very enjoyable day for all, good work people!
Mark

Nice level ????? i was planning to head up, i just didn't think it was going to be worth it (then again there's always something to do when there's Low water in N Wales) what was the Llugwy doing ?? that's usually my gauge, Miners' Bridge or i check out the Chipshop drop...

It's not looking too promising forecast for the Tee's this weekend :? i bet that river is wicked when it's pumping (i still have yet to see this though)

Put it this way: there was enough water for the Nantygwyryd to be running on Saturday morning, which meant Cobden's was right across the slab. Marvellous.

It went up.... it went down. It was all about hitting the rivers at the right moment.
It was the night's rainfall that did it. That's what you get when you don't faff about and get out to the rivers at 9.00am. :D
