No Georgie, you can't play with the sheep! 
The highest point of the day - everyone rejected it as a lunch spot - this wouldn't have happened if Fran was with us!
The rest of the group enjoying the experience of a new path!
The leading group with Richard leading on the new for us path - Satmap in conrol! Walk stats: Distance; 8.0 miles: Climb: 1922'.
Time: 4 hors 40 minutes; On the move walking average;2.3 m.p.h.;Ovverall walk average: 1.9 m.p.h.; Overall walk average: 1.9 m.p.h.
Group: Martyn, Richard, Roger, Sylvia, Dave J., Annie H., Gordon, Michel and Sue and Georgie (becoming our resident dog and friend of all).
A glorious day all round. We arrived at the Ponderosa with a very cool breeze it made me feel like a Cormorant wanting to spread their wings and cool down/dry off! Others didn't appreciate the cooling wind as much!
This was the first time that we actually completed the walk as described by Dave Berry and the new path to us was delightful. missing out Moel Gamelin seemed to be a positive decision and later attempts to include it were rapidly rejected!

Nevertheless this was a lovely walk, although today it was a little too hot to appreciate all of its good points.
It was good to see that Richard was well again and happy to join us for the the second half of th walk!
Birds seen or heard today: Buzzard, Carrion crow, Pied wagtail. carrion crow, Swallow, Swift, House martin. Stonechat. Meadow pipit, Skylark, Wheatear, Linnet, Willow warbler, Pheasant and Blackbird.
After walk drinks were enjoyed at the New Inn at Pontybodkin where a Cottage brew was the one to tickle our fancy!
