BANGOR. The Lion On The Wall.
I took a trip into North Wales at the weekend. Train into Bangor then the bus onward to Caernarvon. The weather could have been a little kinder but it was a day out and there were photos to track down.

SNAPSHOT. Holyhead, Tea In The Afternoon.
I am sat in the lovely and welcoming Hive Cafe. It’s my first visit to the town and as usual I’ve walked more than I expected to.

There was a connection which was taken out a few years back. Time to […]

The Menai Strait flows fast here, separating the mainland from the Isle of Angelsey. The salt laden breeze was sharp and fresh as I ambled along the coastal path. A delightful feature is the Pier at Garth. It’s not a gaudy, entertainment decked affair, just a […]
