family gathering

---

Uncle Frank and Auntie Margaret, along with Martin and Vikki and family (now well grown up), have for years come to Dolgellau for a week at Easter. And we generally meet them for fish and chips at Barmouth and catch up a bit with their news. Although, as Martin pointed out, the historic trend is to meet on a Wednesday (how does he remember that?), they agreed that we'd meet today by special dispensation as its Alex's day off. As no specific spot in Barmouth was dedicated for the meeting, it took a while, and the use of some mobile phones to find each other. Once that was done, a splendid day was spent sitting on the front chatting and later eating chips, followed by a short walk to the ice cream shop by the harbour. We all caught the sun and the wind, and Martin and Alex caught something else on their hats.....see photos. What a lovely family we have.
