17-18TH MAR: Feeling Rusty
17-18TH MAR: Feeling Rusty
First day out in the hills for me this year and since May last year, fell out of sorts with it for a while I think trying to chase other things. It was good to be back however and some nice variety in movements over the two days, albeit rather slow at some points.
Good to catch up with everyone again as well. 17th was spent on Cad West and opting for the Bwlch top on the 18th.

Re: 17-18TH MAR: Feeling Rusty
Blimey.....your version of rusty is something to be admired, thanks for sharing.
Re: 17-18TH MAR: Feeling Rusty
Excellent, as per.
What's with the Apaches recently? There's been pairs knocking around the Loop, Betws-y-Coed and the A5 Pass almost every day this week? Not that I'm complaining!
Is that an American flag (the wrong way round) patch on the shoulder of the back-seater in No.3?

Even closer than that, they've been knocking about Shawbury for a few weeks now too.

Re: 17-18TH MAR: Feeling Rusty
Tommy - the Americans wear their flag on the right shoulder the wrong way round to make it look like it's waving in the wind, i.e. they're always advancing and never retreating.
Bit silly in my mind but that's what they do.
