It is a shame I didn't make this.  Mike and I nearly spontaneously decided to go but then realised neither of us wanted to drive all the way to Wales and back in a day again, or sleep in a car, or try and find the funds for alternative accommodation, or hope there was a spare tent available... and a number of other excuses.

 

Looks like the weather and location were absolutely stunning for it.  Seeing the pictures getting posted is really brightening the end of my weekend up and it has been a good weekend anyway.

The first one was Llyn Clweddog, looking quite full!

 

Here's a photo from the museum reception:

I had a good time, although a shame I only ended up going for the Friday/Saturday morning. I popped back home for a shower on Saturday, and the combination of a busy/disappointing week, very little sleep Thursday night (working late on the Stellar) and the fact I consumed both night's rations of alcohol in a few hours :oops:, meant I felt absolutely knackered by mid afternoon and thought it best not to drive down :-( Here's to next year though!

Got back to Peebo around 11pm - but took me another hour to swap cars. Long story short: the MGF has a parking pass, the Piazza doesn't (and I'm coming back up North for a week).

Despite vari-hoonage 'twixt campsite and monuments, the Piazza coped fine and managed 26 mpg overall; decent for a JR120.

 

Great scenery and similar company. Would like to take the MGF there for a run - the Piazza's in it's element on smooth, fast B-roads rather than hillclimbs wrought with black derv smoke.

Didn't actually take many pics... this is the phone camera stuff anyway.

Will get the rest of flickr at some point, not broken the news to SWMBO that I need to go recover the Kia at some point today.

That's a fabulous photo.

 

Properly looking into the past, like a trip to Wales as a kid.  I can smell the leaded.

Looked as though the weather was kind!

Citroen Xsara leaking water - improvised O-ring from rubber gloves. Lost bleed valve, which did one on the slopey car park, used valve cap off a bike.

Leaving car park - it was on a weird slant, everyone at strange angle:

Looks like a GR888888888888888888888888 weekend. I'm quite impressed that you managed to make a small campsite look like an overgrowing breakers yard. Top chodding!

 

Was is one of you in the blue (?) Rover who passed me on the M4 around Maidenhead on Saturday morning honking and waving? I was in the red Anglia.

Sorry, wasn't me.  I'd feel a bit of a tit doing that anyway, much rather admire old chod on the road quietly!
