The Old Year Washes Away

As the pictures show the ending to 2011 was no better than the whole of the last month has been. My mates John and Clare have been in North Wales for a few days and not being bothered by a spot of rough weather we headed up onto Glyder Fach yesterday to climb the fabulous scramble of the Dolmen Ridge (3). John and Clare both have important and responsible jobs in the real world and so saw the day as a opportunity to practice some under used skills. This all suited me rather well as all I had to do was point the way and concentrate on keeping the water out. Not being a place to linger we didn't stay long on the summit but hurried back home to dry out and get on with the traditional New Year's Eve activities. Blwyddyn Newydd Dda!
