Summer Holidays

A Memory of Pentrefoelas.

I spent many happy holidays with my grandparents John and Alice Hughes at Bron Cadnant, much of the time in the two rivers/streams that come together near the house. I was taught how to fly fish by my grandfather and my Uncle Bob who lived in a shop almost opposite the church in the village. I remember visiting Hafod-lom where by mother was brought up with her father and mother - now under water at Llyn Brenig.
One activity I'll never forget was turning a 'churn' for what seemed like hours to make butter and llaeth enwyn - I loved the salted butter which was almost white with beads of water on it, I've only very recently got to like llaeth enwyn :)
I think Auntie Avril still lives nearby, closer to Cerrig-y-Drudion.

I could go on and on.
