More about this scene
From a scattered fishing village based around two sandy bays on the southern coast of the Lleyn Peninsula, Abersoch has developed into a busy resort. There are superb views from the sands to Snowdon and Cadair Idris, and to the grassy St Tudwal's Islands just offshore. In this evocative view, fishing boats are drawn up on the slipway onto the estuary.

Does anyone know what happened to Rob Smedley I would very much like to know.
vaguely remember a few nights in the white house in 1968 ..any names pot luck..friend who worked in the warren....Janice...
