Iestyn - I'd say a half day, and it will be wet. Waders or Neoprene are a must.

Steve. I'll have a look-see if You want. Fancy texting/PM'ing me where it is?

You want me to go down *there*? On a bloody *rope*?

Ant89 OFFLINE Posts: 1204 Thank you received: 243	Will go down the Gwenfro, if going by boat Noticed there are a few culverts along the canal, an potentially intresting one being near the sun trevor pub, especially as I see no evidence of where it re-emerges.
