Kumar had heard of the Club annual trip to Wales and decided to come along and see what goes on.

I had been told to take plastic plates and a knife, fork and spoon but for the first evening we would be at a restaurant.

Evening meal at the Harvester and choosing what to have.

Although the service was very quick, I still had time for a game.

We were due to be up early in the morning to go hill walking and so I thought an early night was advisable.

I may have short legs but I reckon I could keep up.

Cooking their breakfasts will show them that I am a team player.

I found that us bears were very welcome at the Travel Lodge.

After a great week in Wales I came home very tired but full of memories of the activities we had done.
