A Bar in Aberystwyth

Down in Aberystwyth, a good onshore surf on but no rod - the weathermen said it would be raining

Nice pics Paul,did you go in the bar just to get that shot

View from the hotel room



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

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?

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!

Let us know if you find it ok

Loving the live reports from the commentary box

Great stuff Paul just love it

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??
