I think everybody who braved the coldest night of the year so far, for our night hike had a good time. It was so bright we hardly needed a torch.
We caught the train from Gobowen to Chirk at 20-45 and walked back over the aqueduct, went through a farm tunnel under the A5 and worked our way through fields full of cows, mud, an old railway line, a marsh and finally ended up at Whittington Castle at 01-00. We then invested a couple of new scouts and put the old ones in the stocks before jumping in the Land Rover for the ride back to West Felton. Where Lorna and Molly had made us some hot chocolate and Stollen. Thanks girls. Up again at 08-00 for a nice cooked breakfast courtesy of Phil.
