Rain...Rain....Rain
But we had a saying when I was there, that if you stand on Swansea bay and you can see the Mumbles light-house, that means that it's going to rain. And if you stand on Swansea bay and can't see the light-house . . . that means it's raining!!!!! When I lived in Newport Mon. I used to do day trips to Swansea to get away from the incessant rain :-) The sun always shone on the Mumbles in those days. Lol maybe I am exaggerating ;-) Swansea in the sun is just beautiful. Sitting on a bench in the gardens by the Patti Pavilion, with the soft sound of Swansea sea washing up on the beach nearby . . . it brings a tear to the eye. I try to go there every year for a week or two, it's sort of "touching base" for my soul. They have palm trees and allsorts down there now, thanks to global warming, I think. Newport eh? The town of my birth. Well, someone has to be born there ;-) do you remember the transporter bridge? One of only two in Britain, apparently. BTW Martin I hope you don't think the "Andy H" who posted under "UK Competitions" was me - it wasn't. I was getting paranoid that people here might not speak to me anymore because of that! Cymru am byth!!!!! Andrew |
