Thanks all .... it's a free country and I'll go where I wish ;) :D
Any offers of some payment to get me to stay at home?? Pete |
Go to Pete's Eats in Llanberis, you will appreciate the pint of T after a hard days pensionering :D also the food in there is quite excellent :D :D :D

Pete wouldn't want a pint of tea Wurzel, it would flood his colostomy bag :D

Also good restaurant in borth called blossoms but owners are in process of selling so they may not be there by half term i stayed here with the missus a few weeks ago fantastic food in the hotel the rooms are a bit laura ashley but overall its a good place greatview of the eustary but if you go out on the sand watch the tide 0 to 60 in about 3seconds |

Pete, go for a wonder over Crib Goch - you should find it easy in your moccasins ;) Now as for Crib Goch [Red Ridge] I'm proud to say I once had my 27" knobblys over there too. Felllow rider unfortunately came down in a chopper - but that's another story [and no I dont mean ON a Chopper ;)) |

Where's Nant yr Arian ['Silverbrook'] Chris? It's on the A44, about six or seven miles west of Aberystwyth. Nearest village is Pont-erwyd - there's a Foresty Commission visitor centre there and some cracking MTB trails. |
Crib Goch ridges and the Snowdon horseshoe is IMHO one of the best walks you can do in the UK. I confess to having a soft spot for Snowdonia in general, particularly around Betws-y-coed and Llanberis (And I do remember many visits to Pete's Eats), Some of the other local hills are good (Tryfan, Glyder Fawr and Glyder Fach), and spent a great day climbing waterfalls round Ogwen Cottage. Beddgelert is nice but in a slightly greener, woodier way.

'Nant yr Arian' Chris - 'y' as the 'u' in 'unsure' and then the 'r' needs your tounge to join in and flap about a bit - like the Spanish do ;) |
