I know it's hardly heavenly to some but when I drive to Conwy and see a glimpse of the sea as I approach my destination of Penmaenmawr I'm in heaven. My late uncle drove HGVs and during school holidays he used to take me all over. Always remember that route and on to Pontins at Pwhelli to deliver oil. My sister lives in Capelulo near to Dwygifulchi and we visit couple of times a year. Try find a different route from Devon to avoid top of M5 and M6. |

Cruising the kennet and Avon (river/canal) Beautiful scenery Did you go up or down the Caen Hill locks in Devizes? After leaving Blythe Bridge as a 10 year old I spent all of my teenage years in the 1960's living in Devizes. In those days the Caen Hill locks were in a state of disrepair and were unusable. I last saw them a few years ago and a magnificent job has been done to restore them. |
