I first went there when the kids were small
A little place in North Wales
When they believed in dragons
And other scary tales
It's really is just a tiny place
They don't claim to have much there
But a massive sandy beach
And masses of fresh air
I've been there nearly every year
For the memories that are there
They help though those few times
When I feel in need of care
Even after all those years
Llandanwg is much the same
A very special place to me
I just wish I could say it's name
That's a useful site Pete, thank you. Mind you in North Wales in particular I find it hard to understand them when they are speaking English🙄
I am from South Wales and cant understand the North Waliens.😱 xSheila
My wife learnt a few North Walien words to speak when we entered places where it went quiet when we walked in then started in Welsh. She reckoned it stopped them talking about us when they found we were English but understood Welsh. 😅 I've always found the people as friendly as you will find anywhere when they find you like a chat, which I always do.😉
Yes but there are some very old fashioned Welsh in the Valleys who can be very rude. I am happy to say although from the Valleys I am a very nice lady lol 🤣🤣💕x Sheila

A bitter sweet poem Don, but it brought a smile to my face , that last line.
Also got me googling Llandanwg , I ‘ve visited North Wales a few times but I wish I had been there.
🎂🎂🎂🥃🥃HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥃🥃🎂🎂🎂
Thank you Knitter. There are some lovely beaches all along that coast between Harlech and Barmouth, never very busy even during the high season. 🙂
Lovely view from the campervan
As memories you share
A special place that you hold dear
Wishing I could be there.
Have a wonderful birthday Don and enjoy your lunch. Xxx 😘❤️😘❤️🎂
Thanks Carole for the lovely poem and good wishes. The photo was taken last June in not the best of weather. 🙂x
Looks a bit murky. Xxx💕😘
I think it was quite early in the morning when I was getting ready to walk down to the farmhouse you can just see on the right for my full Welsh breakfast. It’s actually a B&B but Mrs E let’s me join her guests in the breakfast room.😬
That’s lovely Don. Hope you had a good day yesterday. Xxxxx😘
I could say the same about places I visited in Africa when I lived there in another life Don.🤣
So a born and bred Cardiff girl is available for lessons in Welsh pronounciation.
For a fee of course 😂😂😂😂
It’s a glorious beach isn’t it? x
We all have memories of visiting a particularly special place Don. I find old photograph albums are a great source of pleasure. Although photographs can be viewed on your phone or online, these days, I for one feel they will never replace albums.
Used to go to LLangolen a lot , Rhyl, Horseshoe Pass, and the Long named Train station a few Times, My Dad was Welsh, never got to learn from him though, He passed when I was 4. A Beautiful Country. Your View show's it. Thank You Don.xxx
Happy Birthday Don with love from Roz and Paul xxxx
Look at the time 🕜!💫✨🌟🌠HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mr.D 🎂🎈🎉📨🐶🐾🐾🍻🚐💐🎊!
Hope you have a really good day! 💞💞
This brought a tear to my eye Don, I must be getting soft in my old age, can relate to this x
I've been to Llandawg many times too,
A sweep of sea washed sand
beneath a sky of blue.
Rock pools at each end of the sand
Where we shrimped with nets, as, well you do.
Up in the sand among the grass
a ruined chapel hid
Sadly it came to pass,
there they laid the body of a lad
He ignored the undertow : the sea was clear as glass.
I've watched seals and dolphins in the bay,
and munched my picnics there,
Under stars at night I lay.
Unless it rained then into my tent,
Where with card games and books I whiled away the day.
Not up to Don's standard but who could be?
You’re improving my geography no end. Had to look up Llandanwg on google maps as had never heard of it and there it was not far from Barmouth, which I visited my years ago as a friend of ours had a house there.
A very wistful Poem from you today, Don.
Lots of happy memories.
Hope you enjoyed your special day with the two fat ladies, the knitted girlies and Midge.
Love
Corin
Ps I enjoyed the drinks in your honour and Skis- a very nice Chilean Malbec which a friend brought round yesterday to cheer me up.

Another memory jogged there, Don. Many years ago Tony and I went to Wales on our Lambretta. We needed direction, and stopped to ask the way to "Cry seeth" ?! The man nearly had a fit - "Cry seeth" mon, ? You mean
"Cricceth"! Never forgot that, we had a good laugh about it later. Love Iris x
I am from South Wales. Born in a village called CWMGWRACH. English meaning "The Valley of the Witches" My husband reckons I have a sixth sense lol.I know a few spells but they are all nice ones lol. 🤣🤣 Happy Birthday to you and I wish you Good Health . xSheila
😅 Thank you for your good wishes. Does your husband still live with you, Sheila? 😂
Yes Don he does. We have been married 56yrs. Were you thinking of asking me out on a date lol. 🤣🤣👍🥰 xSheila
Well I wouldn't mind 😁, but I though he implied in some way that you were a witch. 😱
Well you are absolutely right Don as he does call me the Cwmgwrach Witch sometimes 🤣 he will never leave me it will cost him too much and I may put a spell on him lol.😱😱 We are very happy as we lived in Midde East .Far East and Asia for.almost 40yrs as Gary worked there building Airports ,Roads bridges High rise building .army camps etc etc .both my daughters went to school in Dubai and Oman.great life really miss it now we have retired and back home.😥😥 xSheila
😅 I've fallen out with Cricceth. I found this year that they have installed a height barrier to prevent me using my favourite perch giving a panoramic view of the bay. 🙁
I didn't know it was your birthday. Belated best wishes Don and thanks again for your lovely poetry.
Thank you Lynn, I missed your reply to my query about your English breakfasts so that must make us quits. 😁 A good English/Welsh breakfast sets one up for the day.
Quits! x
