A Spanish classic, :rolleyes: so how's that work then. :LOL:
And the best bit is, :eek: it's a one way street. :rofl: Bob.
 
What a great place for a party. Not sure what time it finished but good on them hope they had a great time.
Photo of Mena going in to show them a few moves :-)

Our Charlie likes snow and is disappointed we only have rain here in Devon. He is keeping himself amused by wedging his head between wooden railings. :)

The street photo of one way street parking in Spain. I guess the disabled parking boxes are directly opposite each other as the local parking law may say on different days people park on one side of the road or the other, going by the position of parked cars in the photo. There’s is probably a street sign giving details. However l maybe wrong!

Recognised that straight away! We considered buying the house on the corner (white with black window surrounds) about 8 years back!

Lovely area, suggest a trip to The Isle of Whithorn and dinner at The Steam Packet (y)
That' what happene to my wife' brother. He bought one 4 doors away. His wife died now a very lonely. Old man but he gets LOADS of welfare help free. That' why we visit .pluse fish on the harbour.
 
Cracking picture . Is that the site immediately beside Sunnyside Croft , or the one nearer the golf course at Traigh beach?
Thanks
John
The site’s called Silversands, it’s past Sunnyside Croft and just before the golf course and Traigh beach.
It seems relatively new, it’s very basic and certainly opened on a limited budget.
Having said that, it’s got hard standing, electric and water, so perfect for motorhomes. Not cheap at £26pn but cheaper than the others apparently...
Great spot to launch a kayak too(y)

Think they were about to spend money on the site. We had booked Camusdarach a couple of years ago , but it was really muddy and you could almost see the vank sink. They refunded our money and we drove off to find another site . Think it was Silversands that we pulled onto , but couldn't find anyone to pay. We were novices at the time and drove on . We found Sunnyside croft which wasvery good , but have always said we would try , what I think is Siversands. Will go this summer.
Thanks for reply.

FYI. We (finally) found a table top (at Discounted Marine, on Ebay £269) to replace the "Surfboard" in our 2008 B544.

The "Surfboard" is ideal if you want to make use of the B544's ability to seat about 8-10 people around the table............but it's just two of us 99% of the time.

Discounted Marine sell various sizes of (teak) table tops to the sailing crowd but this one is an amazing fit for the sliding rails (826mm x 665mm).
665mm is deep enough so we can sit and eat facing each other whilst 826mm just covers the width of the rails and allows a useful space at each end, for getting changed and getting out of the way. Something which was always impossible with the original table top.

It looks stunning in my opinion. Hopefully the photos below show the difference in size between old and new.

Twin Lakes right now is ringing to the sound of Cuckoos and Toads sometime it's difficult to hear yourself think
but we have been coming here since 2007 and today is the FIRST day I actually got a photograph of a cuckoo

Taken just as the sun set so quite dark plus taken at 450mm F14 1/100th 3200 ISO with a little post pro lightening to see the bars under the wings
 
We’re on a lovely CL near Holyhead, we’re just down the road from RAF Valley so we’re also having free air displays

As you can tell by Arthur’s ears it’s fairly windy!
 
Didn't like the way these two were looking at my phone so I dashed back into the camper :whistle:
Months ago I was considering a GoPro but haven't got one yet. I found a channel somewhere that had a clip of a couple on what looked like castle ramparts. They had put the Gopro on the wall to film themselves , a seagull picks up the camera and fllies away . The footage was really clear , it eventuall y dropped the camera and the couple got it back.
Never trust big birds , either feathered or human:giggle:.

My memories have just been shattered . Looking for the video , people are saying it's a hoax:(.
Not going to buy a camera that lies , always been told the camera doesn't lie:D
