Great trip had by all to tryweryn, what a set up they have there, its so compact it would remind you of a ski resort with the lay out. ;D ;D ;DAs the elder statesman in the group of 10 I took it upon myself to unburden the others by making sure nobody else would feel embaressed with the title of "SWIMFISH" and in order to be certain of this I decided to swim 3 times on the final day and all in situations where there was cameras present so that there would be no doubt or further discussion needed. Of course I dont expect any thanks for this selfless decision but then as you all know thats the type of dignified and classy person I am. No doubt there will be further postings on this issue but I wanted to set the situation straight from the get-go.  <-<-<-<- the dignified one |

Obviously it was Bernard's swims Dickens was thinking about when he wrote the immortal line... "Tis a far far better thing I do now than I have ever done before." Fair play to you Bernard. I'm sure it must have taken a huge effort to scramble out of your boat when you could have so easily stayed in. You really are a superhero.
