    Wales = big place.

    Perhaps if you were a tad more geographically specific? :confused:

    on a slightly more helpful note, if you go on the wales board there is a post currently running called 'things to do in wales', full of ways of entertaining the kids in and around the south wales/m4 corridoor area :D

    I'm going to move this post over to the Wales board because there are loads of Welsh people over there who I'm sure will be more than willing to offer local advise :)

    The Macarthur Glen outlet store is in Bridgend, between Cardiff and Swansea.

    Looks like we are heading towards Abertillery. We have 6 houses to view on Wednesday :D

    Hehe, Macarthur Glen here I come :D

    We've managed to compromise, my house in wales with dh's job in Gloucester :D Never thought we'd be able to do both before.

    Glad I'm really interest in local markets, etc. The big supermarkets leave me cold, although I use them if I have to.

    Abertillery ................. Bad Luck :)

    Good shops in Newport, wonderful market in Abergavenny on a Tuesday or a Thursday, good shops in Cwmbran, something similar to mcarthur glen in Ebbw Vale but on a smaller scale and a new out of town shopping centre in Merthyr Tydfil.
