Caravan holidays

Ahhh, glorious Penmaenmawr where I have spent some lovely holidays.  The sunsets over the bay to Puffin are really something to see, the Fairy Glen and Dwygyfylchi pubs to stay awhile and drink in the atmosphere.  The walks along the beautiful sandy beach and surrounding countryside.  We had a caravan there and spent so many happy times collecting shells, blackberries, walking down the many little lanes and across the golf course, up to the Sychnant Pass where there is such solitude and you can hear the sound of the birds and smell the country air.  The Jubilee path which was cut to commemorate Queen Victoria is a real joy to behold where on a clear day you can see the Isle ...read more here

Holidays at Conwy

We were beaten back by appalling weather so she took me to nearby Llanfairfechan to see her grandparents instead. The warm cottage was a most welcome respite. I have not seen Llanfairfechan since 1967 and ...read more here

Christ Church, Arvon Avenue

Does anyone have any memories or photgraphs of the church and or the church house next door? I know the Sheperd family lived in the house and that the Reverend Sheperd preached at the church, that's all I have (except that I know the church closed its doors as a place of worship a few years ago and nothing has happened to it since).
