    Harlech is a wonderful small town. Castle is well worth a visit. And I've walked up that street!

    Having problems with this Yorkie. Obviously a place name somewhere between Leeds and Angram. Never having heard of Angram I followed up on this and found a small place near Harrogate and an Angram Ltd somewhere near Thirsk. Not been able to find a good map of the area to get much further I'm afraid.
