Hi Tomas,

A 'nice medium level' on the Dargle is a judgment call but I would say 50 cm is 'cruisey' - enough water to cover all the annoying rocks, but not enough to scare you witless. Currently Ferg has set the 'miminum' graph line for 50 cm:

...and we were on it last weekend at that level and it seemed about right. 50 cm corresponds to 6.25 blocks, if that helps.

If you get on twitter and follow @dargleguage (http://twitter.com/darglegauge) you'll get an alert everytime the Dargle guage goes upwards through the 50 cm mark.

Jim.
