And You missed it!

 

A Big Thankyou to everyone who took part, helped and did anything to make the event another great success!
Some Bretons, arriving on Friday night, did not get to bed until 3:30am, due to delays because of the bad weather. The bitterly cold wind caused us to change lots of our plans, but all went well and our Breton friends seemed to have had a really good time!

I will be updating this site in coming days, which will continue and become the

Official AberFest'10 site.

There are a lot of photos to be put on the site and  if you have any, please

email or post me a CD! I will also post peoples comments, so if you would like

to send them in, I will put them up!

A BIG BIG thankyou to everyone!
