The one really wet day we had, we went on the train to PortMadoc, then took the Festiniog Railway http://www.ffestiniograilway.co.uk/index.asp to the slate town of Blaenau Festiniog. I had made the trip here from the north when I was 11 with my friend Mathew. Two little boys making a train journey on their own from Preston with about 4 changes each way - wouldn't happen now. Blaenau was just how I remembered it - grim. But interesting.
