Abergele - Beach & Town Circa 1965

Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Looking at this photo, I'm taken back to summers on that beach full of pebbles and the cafe shown with its novel smell, something like milky coffee!  At about this time Abergele had a cinema, upstairs in the market street. My parents owed Coed Mor, a guest house in the town, and some of the children staying with us and I went to see "The Incredible Journey", a film about two dogs and a cat traveling across country (USA or Canada) to find their owners. Not a dry eye in the house and I've never been able to watch the film since!

RE: RE: Abergele - Beach & Town Circa 1965

I went to see 'The Incredible Journey' in Abergele too at the same time. There has been a remake of the movie since and as a result my son called his Golden Retriever Shadow! I worked at Surfside Bingo/Refreshments on the beach during the summers from the age of 13 to 15. (1971 - 1973). Memories!!!
