The pics are fab, my lads just been looking and persuaded him to go to the next one....
He thinks the bongo made him sick lol
The site was fab...and the water handy and lovely views..and the train running through was quaint
Think we're going to invest in an awning for future trips and hopefully like technophobe get to speak to more people...we just felt like zombies sat morning and didn't want people to think we always smelt of sick lol we've nicknamed it pongo bongo..although all clean and fresh now
Spoke to some nice peeps and didn't catch names...apart from mr Jones who gave us some great tips ta x

Great pics guys, lovely to see what was missing! Muz, is it a good tip then that to get the best shot you have to stand in a river, I have noticed this ritual before?

I was only at Bala a couple of weeks back, lovely part of the world. Glad to see you all had a good time, hope the little 'uns feeling better now debbiepritch. Hope to be there next time

Great write ups & pics you lot.
Dunno how we managed to miss this one - it was on the list . . . .
To anyone who went & wants to do it again or - those who didn't get there & wonder what they missed, there's another bash due at the same site in mid March.
Details in the Fancy Meeting Up section.

Either standing in, or falling in a river is vital for a good pic
Then wipe the water off the lens with a soggy T-shirt
