Ah right, now we're getting somewhere.

Where you staying in Beacons?

I would avoid Pen y Fan unless you go up via a quiet route, it's busy as **** on a normal weekend let alone a BH, there is nowhere to park at the base of the easy routes.

Pontypridd is not a day out or even an hours visit in anyone's book but there is a very nice castle at Caerphilly so perhaps he means there.

Abergavenny, Crickhowell, Hay on Wye and Brecon itself all nice little towns to spend some time in.

Thanks mr chief . All this has been noted and taken on board
 
Think I'm going to drive round brecon beacons and do a few hikes. Will drive m4 (not strictly gojng through cotswolds) fri night. Probs stay somewhere near tewkesbury. Then do the rest next day .stay a couple of nights and leave monday.

Maybe take a quick trip to a sma town outside Cardiff (caephilly? Or pontyprydd my mate said one of those cant remember which) and drive back Monday
why do you want to hike around the brecon beacons? ****ing dog turd way to spend a bank holiday weekend.

I know, we’ve got a couple of days off & we live in one of the most vibrant Cities in the World, what shall we do?

Yeah, let’s head to Breacon.

<doh>

That or staying in london mate.....<laugh>

If you are going to do the Beacons, come off the M40 at Bicester then go through the Cotswolds, Enstone, Chipping Norton, Moton-in-Marsh, skirt Tewkesbury, take M5 for one Junction then M50 ... Ross-On-wye is lovely .... Royal Hotel has a great view across the Wye Valley from balcony garden .. then through Monmouth to Abergavenny and into the Beacons.... great scenery and you should avoid the major traffic jams <cheers>
 
Personally I think **** Matthew and his ****ty threads

Reckon we should put him on ignore till he takes everyone off his ignore list.

See how he likes it
