I looked at the clock when it was 12 noon and I thought to myself "Have they made it? Did they get there?" And I guess all that will be answered shortly  ;D

How was the weather? Looks like everyone pulled out other than you TJ, walktall, omis and JimJinks  :-\

I look forward to your logs, guessing you posted this by mobile?  :) Shocked not to have a more recent update though  :o Guessing you were too tired, or simply having too much fun  :)

Thankfully!! Glad I didn't see the article as foraging 5 did, I'd be worried!!!!

Will enjoy looking at the photos, glad all went well, and that you had a great time.

Ah, such a shame I missed it, and some superb photos - maybe I'll try and get my dad to take me there during the summer?   ;D

Now we wait for the next one  :)

I'm back now having an extended stay in Snowdonia  ;D The weather was really kind to us and most of the way was in broken sunshine, great views  ;D

Towards the top, I think tarmacjohn (if he had had the energy) would have done something to my camera but well done to everyone getting up there, it was great fun. Where next - The Fens  ;)

The next day I decided to go up Tryfan (for the first time) and then onto the Glyder's  :o :o :o

Now catching up with logging and then sorting my pictures out  ;D

I was thinking of doing the 4 peaks in the BreconBeacons horseshoe.

Anybody up for it?

Yes that is a good walk but when might be a problem, as my wife isn't into geocaching and this year seems quite busy  ;D

What a fine collection they are, glad you didn't include one of me nearer the top. I seem to remember not smiling too much as we neared the summit.
