Tawe Trekkers Newsletter - 8th Nov 2010

Hi all,

Back to normal now after our (successful) hosting of the Glamorgan Area AGM. I know I've said it before but many thanks to those who helped out on the day with arranging the hall, serving refreshments...and of course making all those lovely cakes and biscuits! It was a very successful day, thanks not least to to the help of the volunteers from TT.

Remembrance Day Walk @ Craig-y-Nos - Sun 14th Nov

For Remembrance Day Dave leads a walk from Craig-y-Nos to the crash site of a Wellington Bomber. Dave is planning to lay a wreath at the crash site so if anyone would like to contribute a small amount towards the wreath, please give to Dave on the day and it will be gratefully received.

The walk itself includes a path along the Drovers Trail and through the atmospheric disused quarries at Craig-y-Nos. This route gives way to some of the most eerily desolate views in the Brecon Beacons.

To get to the crash site for 11am, we will need to leave County Hall earlier than usual - at 0815, ready for meeting up at the start point at Craig-y-Nos at 0900. Note this is earlier than the time advertised on the website's programme!

Distance - 10 Miles

Difficulty - Moderate

Meeting - County Hall at 0815, or the lay-by near Craig-y-Nos Castle at 0900.

Contact - Dave on 077828621311 for more details or if you plan to meet at the start point.

Moonlight Walk - Sat 13th Nov

Ruth's moonlight walk was originally scheduled for last week, but I'm told that this will now take place this Saturday night - 13th Nov. The route comprises a short moonlit walk around the Lliw Reservoir before heading to the pub - please remember to bring a torch! :-)

I don't have much more detail on this at the moment so if you'd like to go on this walk with a difference please contact Ruth on 07929147215 for more details.

That's all for another week.

Cheers,

Doug
