If you're heading north, you might as well have a quick look for Hyperborea while you're at it.

No time to waste on wild goose chases. Anyway, we're heading for the Southern Barra Islands, not Harris and Lewis (those legendary 1970s party monsters)

Jethro is also having his wedding do in Llanberis on Saturday the 2nd. I said to CJD the other day that I would only be able to meet up on the Sunday because I was going to 2 different weddings in the same day. There was then an audible clunking noise (the penny dropping inside Chris' head)

and he said (in a very surprised tone) that he was also going to Jethro's wedding. Ooops!

I'm not sure if this means the meet will be without a host? What about the following weekend - can people make that?

Hopefully Chris will come on here soon and explain what is happening.

Where are you CJD? Earth calling CJD...

tc · May 25, 2007, 05:21:40 pm

Erm...what about 23/24 June?

Jim · May 25, 2007, 06:33:15 pm

Give that man a diary

a dense loner · May 26, 2007, 12:06:44 pm

what! chris has realised he can't make it cos he has to do something else

a diary or preferably some kind of p.a would be in order

Johnny Brown · May 26, 2007, 12:40:58 pm

Idiot!

Falling Down · May 26, 2007, 04:25:51 pm

I'd prefer weekend # 2 (9th & 10th)....

Monolith · May 26, 2007, 08:44:29 pm

Ditto. Wkend 24th infringes upon my good lady's birthday. Don't know if me venturing off to hang out with some smelly men for the weekend would go down too well.

c.j.d. · May 27, 2007, 03:51:56 pm

Okay okay - I know! Totally forgot about this one. The weekend after seems like it will suit more people I guess. Spoke to a man called Ted last night (the new owner of the Fricsan public establishment). They have camping at the pub, which closes rather late of a weekend

. Weekend of the 9th then - no further changes neccessary.

Jim · May 27, 2007, 06:29:08 pm

is this the place?

Houdini · May 27, 2007, 06:40:34 pm

Ah, The Ffucksan! May not look much but it's the best pub in the area. You can drink the beer, like.

c.j.d. · May 28, 2007, 07:56:51 am

See ya there Oddie?

Houdini · May 28, 2007, 09:56:25 am

David S · May 30, 2007, 10:08:50 am

Balls, Chris.

Can't make that weekend. Oh well.

p.s. can you pm me your phone number, I seem to have lost it.

Sloper · May 31, 2007, 11:15:37 am

Where are people camping?

And if anyone needs a lift I'm planning on driving up to Wales on Thursday morning (unless the weather is crap).

Pantontino · May 31, 2007, 09:48:48 pm

Sloper, it looks like The Fricsan is the chosen venue.

Jim's link was correct, although it has changed hands since that website was constructed. The new landlord and landlady are fine folk.

Sloper · May 31, 2007, 10:09:15 pm

OK just make sure that I drink less than I did in Eire

Pantontino · May 31, 2007, 11:03:56 pm

My days of power drinking are long gone - CJD may still make for an effective cheerleader in this department though. I'm sure he'll gladly lead you astray.

I've posted a news item on NWB.com, with a few pics to remind everybody who hasn't been to N Wales for a while what they are missing:

Falling Down · June 01, 2007, 08:01:37 pm

I'm off to Abersoch for a week tomorrow so I'll hopefully see some of you next Saturday in Ogwen (weather permitting).. I won't have internet access so I'll call V12 next Friday to check the plans...

Simon - I have the Lleyn/Ysgo Mining Booklet with me so I'll give it to you next week.

If anyone is around on the Lleyn next week - I'll be surfing most days at The Mouth or Ceriad until Wednesday at least as the forecast is good. If anyone is around on the Lleyn drop me a line on 0*780*1 79*2*54*1 (remove the asterix's for my mobile number). The weather looks very nice and settled until the middle of week so lets hope for a good weekend....

I'm gonna try/will to get myself to the Fricsan for around 18.30 on the Friday to hook up with whomever turns up. Its light till late, so maybe a brief session at the Cromlech before pints? I reckon we can all discuss plans for the following day there and then. If any one needs directions to hidden gems they need to seek out, directions and beta will be given. Cheers to all who have shown interest, see ya there...

Nibile · June 02, 2007, 03:17:14 pm

last night i dreamt about meeting a bunch of ukb'ers, it was sunny and we were ready for some pulling.
dunno if it was in north wales though.
