Well all 46 of us are back. What a week. We had everything. Nice comfortable hotel, good food, lovely staff, excellent company and the weather! What can we say about the weather? You could take your pick from sunshine, blue skies, warm and then we went downhill slightly. Fantastic sky formations of black and even blacker, squally showers and amazing seascapes of crashing rolling waves. We did a whole lot better than some parts of the country though. Did it deter us? No! Our excursions were good. Cardiff is a beautiful City with the Castle right in the City Centre, we partied at night and a good time was had by all. We even braved Friday’s M6!
St.Helens Glass Museum have now sent their itinerary, for our visit, which commences at 10.30am. We can therefore depart at the later time of 9.45am.
