Welcome to the Village
Aug. 20th, 2020 05:53 pmI will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered! I am not a number!
Or to put it another way, went to Portmeiron. Which, as I think everyone knows, is The Village from The Prisoner, and also Renaissance Italy from Doctor Who's The Masque of Mandragora. Saw the giant chessboard, had somenice ice cream, visited the gift shop, and escaped without getting smothered by Rover.
Then went to Porthmadog.I felt the need to look at Narrow Gauge trains! Also managed to upset Flickums with my control freakery. Ooops. I am now forgiven though.
Drove back via Fairy Falls. A local waterfall in a small sleepy village with a surprisingly large amount of tourist infrastructure.
Fortunately, the weather was nice today. It was hot and sunny. Pretty windy but that's probably a good thing on a hot day.
Definitely an improvement over yesterday's failure of a holiday day.
