Someone's trying

I'm off to the bar to watch how he gets on in comfort!

Having a pint of cream flow, looks like he
Had a can of something too

Subject: Re: A Bar in Aberystwyth Mon Jul 27, 2015 8:24 pm

He's very animated and looks unsteady on his feet

Could be the wind, difficult to tell this side of the double glazing!

Having a nice slice of bara brith with my pint

He's doing a lot of arm waving

Could be nuts,

A second pint and nibbling Nobby's nuts for me!

This week in 2012 my family were at the Welsh Orienteering Festival ("Croeso") . I remember sitting by the beach just there eating a bag of chips, in the heat!! Another mad summer we are having.

Chips now there is a thought!

He's being plagued by weed build up.

Wind has moved a bit and the rain has arrived

There is a chippy near there, but I can't remember exactly where. On the front. You might be within 100m of it? Smile

During a storm in 1938, in which much of the Aberystwyth seafront was damaged the pier was battered. Friday January 14th, with wind speeds of up to 90 miles per hour the pier was cut in half.
During calmer weather it is apparently still possible to swim out beyond the end of the pier and view metal columns which made up the structure lying under water.
I'll leave that sort of daring do to Musselman though!

Our " caught owt mister?" has packed up - good decision!

And I'm going to orienteer to that chippy!

i know, after all, you just wanna, after a hard day in the chambers debating how much they should give themselves in raises, how many houses they can claim on expenses and why they should oppose commercial bass limits - all you wanna do is strip to your bathrobe, wear red womens underwear, inhale narcotics and smoke sone natural herbage at a gangbang... after alk, why should that newspaper snapper have any cause to bother me??
