Just got back from Ibiza. I'm way too old but couldn't resist going back. Not exactly a classy holiday and spent a small fortune going to the likes of Ocean Beach and Ibiza Rocks. Went to a fantastic couple of restaurants tho!

I had those years when younger. Think I was there every year from 17-22. Then decided I wanted to see the world a bit more. Some people I know still go back every single year !
 
Off to South Wales (Tenby) for a week next Friday. Not able to go abroad this year after all my health problems but fingers crossed will be get next year, on a cruise if possible
Love Tenby, quiet and some great places around the area to visit. Saundersfoot used to be lively a few years ago but very quiet now and a stroll along the front is fresh. Pendine sands just 40 mins away is a great visit and just a bit further on is laugharne, nice town and history with Dylan Thomas. Get yourself along to “ the love spoon workshop” for traditional lovespoon making, that’s in kilgetty. Family owned business from the house where the father and son make the spoons and the mother had daughter design everything. Your lass will love it.

Yeah, we love it. 23 years since our first visit and it was the last holiday with us for our 4 kids (until we went to Florida 3 years ago). We like to drive thro' St Davids en route to New Quay and get a boat trip to see the dolphins.
The lovespoon visit is a great idea and last time we did a chocolate factory visit that was out of the way a bit but can't remember where!

Wickedly welsh chocolate factory on withybush trading estate in Haverfordwest, SA62 4BS.
Also try the harbour brewery [Harbwr in welsh] That's got some cracking beers on sergeants Lane, Tenby. SA70 7BU.
Milford waterfront is a good night out also .

Yeah, googled that one today but not the one we visited last time, which may not he there now, so will probably do the Wicked one.
 
Last time my son was in he was talking to the barman who told him about the sawdust on the floor for people to spit on - did you oblige ?
Nah, I showed it to my Son and explained the reasoning, but it was only on the floor between the bar and the foot rail... so say 6" to 8" max so it would be quite a hard shot <laugh>

No the hotel!! I might be getting mixed up!! We stayed in the big massive hotel overlooking the Menai Straights, which had tables outside. I thought it was The Liverpool Arms, tho I could be wrong. lol

Bart
No you are probably right but it could of been the Liverpool arms in Menai village just along the road<ok> or the Bulkeley hotel In Beaumaris, very nice and old woridy
