After a night of torrential rain, we awoke to a very soggy site. After attempting to launch a raft on a river which went from being reminiscent of Wind in the Willows, to being suitable for the GB Olympic white water rafting team. On realisation, a Leader prevented a Scout being washed away in a torrent of a river The rain began in ernest again and we, as much as the Scouts, needed to get away from the damp. So where best to go when you’re soaking wet? Swimming of course! We can’t take photos there, but they had both a fantastic time, and had a well needed wash! Other photos from today…

well i have never seen such a happy bunch of kids before despite the horrible weather, so well done for keeping a smile all of you.
Sending happy good weather vibes for the walk up Pen Y Fan today, i wonder how many sheep you will see along the way. Anastasia this is where all that “walking in” your new boots will pay off, enjoy it , i’m sure the experience will be well worthwhile. Remember though its not the first to reach the summit that matters being a “Trevor” is just as important! Take care, love always Mum xxx
