I went in June 2009 with Billy Shiels, it was a great experience, I'd love to go back. One drawback - not enough time on the island. Here is a link to some of my images from that visit -

As Gwyn says - look forward to seeing your photos.

Hope that helps.

Agree with Gwyn on all the above plus

Llanddwyn beach and island.
14/15 century St Cybi's Church in Holyhead inside the the romman fort, it should be open for the cruise ship visit.
The breakwater in Holyhead (longest in the UK)
Views from the top of the Marquess of Anglesey column.
Try this for suggestions -

If you are in or near Holyhead on Saturday the largest ship ever to dock in Holyhead is in the harbour. Can be viewed from Newry Beach or the breakwater.

How about Llanfair PG station. (mind the coach loads of tourists)

Have fun. Look forward to seeing images of my home town (alas no blue plaque yet!!!).

Careless meSorry Andrew.

Howard

Croeso.

Pleased to be of assistance.

Howard

Sorry to butt in, Andrew,

Literal translation is "Palace(or mansion) of the gap/pass"

as for pronounciation "bwlch" - "bull" + "ch" as in loch, will get you reasonably near.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Howard



PS

i-Berg did you know that Melbourne has a Welsh Society and a Welsh male Voice choir?

Lovely set, Andrew, as always. Somewhere where I've never been.

Howard

Is the fly past definitely in Manchester? If so I'll do my utmost to get there.

Cheers,

Howard

No offence taken. Nice to know that they still speak it there.

Howard

Thank you, Davex. I saw it coming in over Knutsford on her last flight and I can't find the photographs, or the negatives, that I took Interesting shot of inside the hanger, thanks.

Cheers,

Howard

I'm going to speak to my 99 year old father now, in Welsh of course. Just thought I'd let you know.

Bye.

Cheers,

Howard
