Claire had to go back to work today (boy did she moan about it), so once she’d gone Maria,John and I packed and tidied up. As the weather was nice but the forecast was not good we decided to set off.
We had nowhere particular to go so we decided to visit Barry Island. I was brill, full of candyfloss, seaside rock, fish and chips and doughnuts.
There were some great looking rides but saddly we were too early and they weren’t open yet. Maria and John didn’t seem too keen on hanging around to wait.
I looked in all the arcades but saw no sign of Nessa, which was a shame. Maria and John kept going on about a ‘blast from the past’ and ‘the seventies’, just how old are they?
We had a smattering of rain so decided to head off. We drove through the Rhondda. Some beautiful scenery.
We were just wondering what we were going to have for tea when we a sign for a venison centre.
I loved the carved deer in the car park.
We bought some lovely venison for tonight and some pasties for lunch.
It’s good to get back home, it’ll be nice to sleep in our own beds, but we had a lovely break and it was nice to see Claire.
Maria and John are off to the Chelsea Flower Show later in May and they’re staying at the Park Lane Hilton, so if they think I’m staying at home, they’ve got another think coming.
