    Youngest daughter went last weekend to a family christening.
    Not been for a while but plan to go around early November to spread some of me dads ashes and visit family.
    Doubt it'll be sunny then lol and I bet I've booked a weekend we're playing away <doh> :rolleyes:

    We will probably stay for a month. What could be better Shields in November !? At least I should get to some games. Got a few concerts booked too! If they’re still on!

    There's a member on rtg lives in prestatyn,
    Rhyl has been tidied up and has a large marine lake with miniature steam train.
    Abergele has the fake castle used on the recent "I'm a celebrity".
    Took the grandson today, bit shìt tbh but he enjoyed it.

    Dingo dollars lol :D
    Conway is a nice town mate, great castle and views.
    Amazing beach if you drive out the top of town and turn for the marina but then take a left that looks like a road for private spa/static site.
    It's across from the great orme Llandudno, great views from both sides.


    Llandudno also nice for a day out.
    There's a decent pier, tobagon run up from the pier and the great orme. A drive from grand hotel/pier that winds up twisty roads to a cafe at the top with play area etc. Excellent views, copper mine.

    Can't download views as it says they're too large .

    Whereabouts in Rhodes are you going? I love that place and usually go 3 times a year. I've time off in October but think will duff it this year purely for having to get tests to come back. Was over last September for 3 weeks and was one of best holidays I've had and no hassle. A year later with a vaccine and obstacles are put up.

    Aye I love it. Was never one for going to same place but don't go anywhere else now unless for city breaks. Got a few good Greek mates now and been learning language as hoping to live or spend a lot of time there when I retire. We stay along the road at Pefkos.
