exactly so. I am very familiar with the canals and the engineering
issues achieved in the last five years would make a water transfer
scheme utterly boring in comparison


Given the past history of creating reservoirs in Wales to supply urban areas
in England I'm not sure how well such a scheme would go down on this side
of Offa's Dyke.

Llyn Celyn is full to the brim ATM (don't know what they'll be letting out
for the canoeists over the weekend).

The river was slightly over at Maentwrog and looking towards Tanygrisiau
and Blaenau the mountain streams were in full spate.
