| Afon Arran |
Hey...get me, I've worked out how to put pictures on my blog, yay!....errm....I'm so easily pleased lol :o)
This a picture of the Afon Arran in Dolgellau just before it goes under Bont yr Arran which leads into the town itself. We used to walk along the river, under the bridge and down to Cae Chwech as it was then, opposite the park. Some of the braver kids....you'll be surprised to hear I wasn't one of them ;o)....used to swing with a rope from a tree, across the deeper part of the river to the opposite bank.
Unfortunately, as in all redevelopment our play field is now a car park. In all fairness though, it not only is a car park they have also built a leisure centre there, so I guess the kids have benefitted from it. Mind you the biggest improvement I have to say is the park itself. They received funding from the National Lottery and now it is a park where not only the children can have fun, adults can too. I haven't got a picture as yet but I will post one on when I get one.... :o) If anyone has a photo of the park before or after, please email them to me.... sharonevans2008@btinternet.com .... and we can all share them on here. Sounds like a plan? :o)
Well....unfortunately I no longer am able to read what's in front of my face without wearing my glasses.... :o( on a happier note I can still read what's across the room.... :o) So I reckon the best plan of action is to put my book on the table across the room in order to read it :o) Oh dear....massive flaw in that idea....I would have to cross the room each time I wanted to turn the pages over, and the speed I read I'd be up and down more often than a call girl's knickers.... ;op
So what did you all get up to over the bank holiday week-end? Did anyone go to the Victorian Extravaganza in Llandudno? We used to go a lot, but haven't been for a few years now. My sister-in-law was one of the supporters who used to get into the spirit of it all. She used to make her own victorian costumes and wore them all day and took part in the parade through the town. She persuaded my daughter and her friend to take part once....and it was only once lol ....they both looked very nice fair play to them, but being teenagers the costumes were changed to their own clothes as soon as.... :o)
Happy Birthday today to my pal who is 27....again lol x
Short blog this time, but really will do my best to put them up more often, promise :o)
Don't forget comments please :o)
Stay safe and happy :o) xxx
