Panic over, It was Ian and Viv’s ruby wedding anniversary this weekend, so they have been preoccupied…. Let’s give Ian a big Castle welcome on Thursday, with a good turnout for the photo competition!

Many thanks to our semi-Spanish-resident duo for organising us all to do it, and to David P for leading and setting up abseils

I’m late in posting the report – we’re mostly back now (Jez & Tracey, David & Linda still there). We did get a few snowflakes one day on a different ridge.
I’m for Madeira next….

The road is clear to just below the reservoirs, then car tracks for the last few hundred yards, so we’ll stick with the original route. Just be careful of pedestrians and water on the cleared road, a broken down bus and car in Lodge Moor, and the snow on the final section.
