Coasteering with Alpkit

On bank holiday Monday Claire and I had a great day out at Porth Dafarch with the Alpkit, staff, family and friends. They were even nice enough to buy me lunch after, what a good day.

Ty Coch Music Night.

Last night was spent on the beach at Porth Dinllaen for another of the Ty Coch summer music nights. Hi::def Sound System was out in support of the FREEDOM Vs ::definition Sound Clash.

I was lucky enough to escape the office again today to find a beautiful sunny day at Porth Dinllaen. The day was then spent coasteering with Simon and Mandi before returning to Llanberis.

Cubo 18 Build

This evening has been spent in the workshop making a Cubo 18 for Greg. I have not made one of these before and am looking forward to hearing it.

Pete and Nicky Visit

As Pete and Nicky were visiting this weekend I decided to take off my first weekend in months, I had definitely forgotten how nice it is. We managed to fit plenty in amongst a good few pints. Friday evening was spent messing about on Padarn Lake once I had finished the days kayak sessions. After eventually surfacing after a heavy night we managed to venture out onto Y Garn and the Glyders for Saturday afternoon for what must have been my first mountain walking day in four or five years. The weather was pretty grim but good to be out with mates.
