    Wales can be very funny weather wise due to the mountains. Its worth paying CLOSE attention to local weather reports. Case in point was a blistering day the whole country had when I was fishing Tywyn the other week. It was blazing sunshine till we got within 2 miles of the coast at which point it went cloudy and was cloudy all day. Sometimes though it can be the other way around.

    Plenty of oddities to see in wales too. Mines, waterfalls, old quarries etc along with the usual beaches and mountains.

    A little closer for you (I think you are london?) might be the gower peninsula. Rhossili beach and worms head are magnificent.

    I grew up less than a mile from there. I thought all kids went to the beach after school each day in the Summer :)

  • My Extra store has taken all of these Tyrell spicy green nuts off the clipstrips and put RTC 30p yellow labels over the barcodes :mad:

    But this could very well mean they are now a penny if the original bc is scanned. Can someone test please? Normally on clipstrips in crisp or booze section.

    Afternoon all :p

    Hugs to all who need them x

    OH is taken me away to stay at Sand Banks soon as a thank you for all my hard work :) I may need some new clothes to take ;)

    Mr and Mrs Toni bought me a Pandora Bracelet and my first charm to say thank you, what a lucky Lady I am :D

    Sand Banks is lovely, my Mum in law lives in Canford Cliffs and we often go visit and walk along the beach to Sand Banks for lunch in one of the numerous bars. Enjoy, will be a nice break away after all the hard work of organising Toni's wedding...:):):)

    I've always fancied holidaying/camping in Wales as I love unspoilt areas,

    I hate bournemouth/southend etc as it's all candyfloss and slot machines!:eek:

    but when ever I suggest it to the Mrs she dismisses it as it is alway wet!:(

    Just looked up the weather in Barmouth and she appears to be correct!

    opinions please!?

    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: I beg to differ.

    What a waste of time and taxpayers' money. If only they spent as much effort going after the rich...

    I'm not getting into an argument over the rights and wrongs, I'm merely saying what I was told.
    They did however go on to say that the Inland revenue also said that by using these methods they discovered an enormous amount of benefit fraud too.....so maybe not such a waste of time or money
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
