Hello all
Tracey - well done. Sounds like you had one hell of a day.
I don't mind what we do on 28th. Looks like Mrs GraV has got something booked for 28th and Seren can't come. Is anyone free on 4th June?
I don't anything about llamas. Ask me about pie, cake or adding up and I am okay
don't work around me NR because I'm away till the 6th June and the following wekend I'm at Bala sat to monday.....so don't work around mne.I can always do the next one
Boffin - don't do a google sort on llama pie like I just did.......I found something distasteful involving some very strange people on a website established in 2003 who seemed to be licking each other!!!!
Tracey - I too have been eating cake....Mrs Crimble's Stem Ginger cake from the farm shop near CrossHands. We went there yesterday & whilst we were there, Mike Cuddey (Ospreys supremo) arrived by helicopter to have his lunch in the cafe...I kid you not!
We've had a great day.....coffee by accident at Mandy Beer's house near Bishopston (we drove past and her husband flagged us down!) & then a walk along the cliffs at Brandy Cove.
Just had tea at Dyffryn Arms in Bryncoch....nut roast/chips/Wadsworth 6X.
I love Bank Holidays
....hiccup!
NR - we are both free anytime....have I misled you with my llama-related mutterings!!!!?
Grav, that has to be a good reason to stay well away from Llamas if ever an excuse were needed! Sounds like you had a brilliant Bank Holiday... but what will youhave in store for tomorrow?
Me, I've been modifiying an old stone barn - yet more demolition!!
NR - we have...but don't tell Rose...we'll be reprimanded for unprofessional conduct!
See you soon.
Just taken Adam for a day out in London. He loved the tube where he excelled himself by shouting bo**ocks and t*at (postman pat has a black and white one apparently) very loudly to what luckily was mostly the amusement of passers by. We also did the Natural Science museum where after looking at the dinosaurs and so on it turned out that the most interesting 'exhibit' was a bucket under a leaky roof. He was most concerned about how to fix the roof !
Also did the Science museum and was asked to leave a restaurant because he would not behave.
Parents eh ? They just can't bring children up properly nowadays ! I used to hate parents who could not control their kids, now I can't control mine
Morning all
A big adventure for you yesterday WA. With so much to take in, Adam was probably blown away by it all. Its what being a little boy is all about. You are a great Dad.
As for the 28th, I am okay for the Friday after as are most people. Can everyone let me know if they are too?
Lovely day out. Enjoy
Morning
Alex - Oops! I am sure you did not forget... you just didn't remember either! Posting on the forum the 28th was just a Friday; out of context with other important dates.
I think I am happy to move the date to the 4th June - note the "I think" proviso, as although there is nothing in my diary on that date, that has little bearing on reality
Sunny day here in the wilderness, spring has finally sprung and everything we dont want is growing!! Just chopped down 1 foot high nettles that seem to have srpung up form no where!
Boffin - I love this time of year. Walked through the park at the back of my house yesterday. The wild garlic and bluebells are out. Lovely
. Nettles are not so good though.
Hi everyone. Just back from Aberystwyth. Pleased I pushed myself out for a 6.2mile run yesterday with the last 400m being up a 1 in 4 hill!
My Nike+ iPOD told me I'd "run" 2,500 calories this week! Duly celebrated with a pizza and cider afternoon - I love bank holiday Sundays!
Hope you've all enjoyed the break.
Kev
Evening all
Lovely day out there. Ventured out for a run to break up the studying today and enjoyed. My foot seems to be on the mend.
Well done Kev.
Went for a walk in the Black Mountains today. A hill called Moel Gornach. We were told it was a nice easy walk for the kids, good views and not covered in people.
You park on the A4069 at 400m, so the climb up to the cairn at 616m isn't at all difficult. The view from the top is really spectacular. You are on the highest peak for a good few miles and so have a 360 degree view of the Brecon Beacons. You can also see Swansea and the whole of the Gower Peninsula, from Mumbles to the Worm and back down the Loughor estuary. And there was no one, not one soul up there apart from us! Best of all, a few hundred yards along the main road is the Rhiw Wen view point car park where there is an ice-cream van!
I definitely recommend this one for anyone with young kids, not much time, short attention spans or poor(ish) health.
Evening all
RK - I think I may have entered that one. Will check
Tracey - thats not far from where I used to live. It is lovely up there. Gorgeous day for it too.

You thought your build up to London was bad WA, try reading this bloke's story. Made my eyes water!!!

Welcome Welsh Mum - you have all my sympathy regarding ankles! Take it steady and you will be zooming away in no time
Most odd really - not only do I have an uncany nack for twisting my ankles and gaining loads of weight, I also appear to be able to enter marathons whilst I sleep - logged on this morning to find I have entered the VLM ballot....!!
