Sorry folks im just so blown away by what has occured thought you all should know!!!!!

Finding out that, after racing around snowdonia to find another venue for my camping weekend in may, the nice gentleman that i spoke to who agreed for us to camp at his place is the one and only Eric Jones!!!!! He was the first Brit to do a solo assent of the north face of the Eiger!!!!! I will be humbled to be in the company of one of our British all time greats!!!! Link to who Eric Jones is and what he has achieved http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Jones_(climber)
FECKIN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Eric, as a young man wanted to join the parachute regiment, unfortunately he could not due to an injury from a Motorcycle Accident!!!!

Don't forget the cafe he runs. The all day climbers special has brought life back to many a cold wet biker out for a run in that area.

Well that is fantastic! Should provide some decent discussion for us all. And I too will feel humbled by tales of human endurance by the hero himself if he will honour us with his presence, and I mean that
