Chris it is in another country in a way - it's in Wales and you are in England lol ;o)
It's a place called Porth Tywyn

I am trying to catch up with everyone's blogs. I haven't been on for a while

lovely photos - I love sea holly - we have the blue hobbit veriety of this plant :))) Lovely beach and lighthouse - love the seaside very much :)))))))

Thanks Paul. I love going by the sea aswell. I go to this place often.
Good you've got that plant. I've got one aswell but not sure of the variety

It's amazing how these tough plants tolerate such difficult conditions isn't it, Hywel? Gales, storms, occasional sunshine! Lovely blog ... : o ))

Yes - 'occasional' sunshine it is this year lol
Thank you :o)

The coastline of Wales is very beautiful, I remember my first (and only) visit 40 years ago to the Gower and one day might make it back!

Wonderful photos Hywel, you do live in a beautiful part of the world, I adore that lighthouse and the Marina is beautiful. Thank you.

Spent many happy holidays in Pembroke Dock. Beautiful area.

Great pics Hywel, lovely place to take a walk i am soo envious the nearest sand to me ..is in bags at B & Q.. lol the marina looks delightful & i have not seen sea holly before so thank you..:o)

What a lovely blog. You never fail to impress me with what you see through your camera lens. I like the way you get up close and personal with what you show us as if we were there with you. The Coast programme was on the other night and they were in the Gower looking at how the farmers keep their sheep on the flood plains of the salt marshes which are covered in sea at high tides. It gives the mutton a very different flavour. They also went down to the rocks with a knowledgable lady who collected lava sea weed and cooked it. Have you tasted it. Seems to be a bit of a delicacy.

It's called laver bread Scotsgran. It looks black and sloppy but it's delicious :o) Nice with cockles and some fresh crusty bread .....
The coast here looks across a big estuary towards Gower

Granyb Pembroke Dock is about 70 miles from here :o) Can't say I've ever been there actually.
I'm pleased you enjoyed it though :o)

LOL Joanella :o)))

Thank you all my friends :o) ...........

I am having great difficulty with GoY. It doesn't want to show me my homepage :o( And it keeps asking me to log in when I never log out !
And it will only accept my photos at 4 o'clock in the morning lol :D
I'm getting quite irritated with it actually :o(

I too have to 'log in' frequently, gets on my pip it does!! and I always go through an already logged in way!!

I've tried telling them but they said it was something wrong with my computer. It only happens with GoY so it can't be my computer.
Now I know you two have to do it aswell, it definately is not my co puter.

Have you been eating cucumber Hywel, your repeating so much. Its given me a good belly laugh, but I bet your tearing your hair out.
Loved your blog and pics.

They are so pretty flowers Hywel, and lovely scenes and love the lighthouse, I have a chance to move there as I could exchange what do you think of the area.

haha soooo it is lol .................... drrrrrrr !!!
my comp plays up 2 , it keeps missing letters haha
;0)))

great pics Hywel. it amazes me what will survive down on the beach..if i turn my computer off by the shut down button i have to lg in again too...but if i put it to hibernate i'm still logged on when i return...
Granny B..pembroke dock is only 8 miles from me...:-)

It doesn't matter what I do Sandra :o(

Sixpence there's nothing much in that place. It's a small village. There are two nearby towns some miles away.

My computer misses letters too Chris, and it puts the wrong ones in the wrong places lol ;o))

Thanks everyone :o)

Thank you Hywel for your advise which I shall take :o))

Do you know where it is then ? I've only given it's welsh name in a comment :o)
You might like it, I don't know.

This is the main town of where I could exchange to it s an old miners cottage no shops there either the village is called Abergynolwyn its with in the Snowdonia national park but not have any facilities there put me off and not knowing the area, have a laugh its next door to a chapel lol like I am now but it has nt got a back garden only a court yard and front garden.

You've got the wrong area Sixpence. This place is on the south coast, not far from where I live. It's between Llanelli and Carmarthen.
Snowdonia is over 100 miles away from here.

Lovely blog and pictures,Hywel..you live in a beautiful part of Wales..lucky you..:o)

Oh thank you Hywel it is north wales they said.

That's ok Sixpence. Glad to be of help :o)

Thanks Sandra. I'm pleased you liked my blog :o)
