We had a lot of "big" birthdays to celebrate this year - a 50th, six 60ths and a 70th so what better way to celebrate than to take to the water for the weekend! 26 of us headed to Llangollen for a fun filled time, kayaking across the Pontcysyllte aquaduct, white water rafting, walking, an amazing afternoon tea, fish and chips and perhaps a drink or two. Congratulations to all those celebrating big birthdays this year!
