31/12/04 Our trip to Sugar Loaf in the Black mountains was a great walk. A bit windy on top but the views were well worth the walk. We even had time to cook some dinner. This time of year the weather can be very dramatic up in the mountains. To find out more click here. |

| 28/12/04 Well we took a trip to the brecons after hearing about a fresh snowfall. We weren't disappointed. Although when the weather turned nasty we did wonder what we were doing climbing over mountains in gale force winds, sleet, snow and 30 feet visibility. Oh and it got dark aswell for the last hour and a half so headlights on aswell. Very satisfying when we had got down safely. Thank god for the map & compass. Still John was still smiling.

| 20/12/04 Well out little trip to Ladye bay on Sunday didn't produce any fish, but a 9lb 9oz Thornback Ray was caught further up from us. We also had a great background of snow covered welsh hills to look at and plan trips in our head. We will be going up very shortly if anyone who isn't already going is interested. |

| 07/12/04 What can I say about sundays trip to the Brecons???? Well apart from it being wet, windy, misty, muddy, and hard work it was a nice walk. Managed to get in six peaks including Pen Y Fan, Cribyn and Fan Y Big. Good training for Kilimanjaro in January and a few lessons learnt too. Out again very soon so fancy coming when the weather is clearer let me know. |

01/12/04 Top gig at the fleece from the get outs on the 25 Nov. Even good to see the Kingswood punk ! whoever you are you nutter. Any way we have just got our hands on 24 VIP tickets for paintballing in February and are going at £5 each and £10 for the first 100 paintballs. We are going with Delta force and will probably go to the site in Thornbury in Bristol. We are also currently talking to them about filming the paintballing so we can have some cool pics to put on the site and maybe a short video to remember the day which promises to be a great laugh. Drop us an email if you are interested. tristanbawn@hotmail.com |

25/10/04 The Commando Challenge 2004. What a great challenge. Myself, Jo and Lisa certainly got the mud we were expecting, Heavy rain made the event very muddy and the course was laid out great. Plenty of crazy people all doing the same challenge. Thanks to Jo for sorting out the booking and tee-shirts. Enjoyed by all and looking forward to next year.
