Guest Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 So the rumours have finally come true and I am really moving to Wales -- we're buying a place in Talley, just north of Llandeilo. What's on around there??? -- Jessica Link to comment
Supercorsa Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Probably alot of leisure centres full of sheep! ;-) Link to comment
Dickytwang Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Enclosed 10 things to do when your in Llandeilo : Walk through Castle Woods Nature Reserve to ancient Dinefwr Castle, perched on a crag with tremendous views along the valley of the river Towy. Shop for clothes, gifts and quality goods in our fine small, individual shops and galleries - no mass-market shopping malls here! Visit Dinefwr Park and Newton House, a National Trust property, with white cattle, lake and deer park. Stop for morning coffee or afternoon tea in the Cawdor Hotel or one of the pleasant cafes. Hunt for bargains among the antiques and collectables in the Antiques Market or the monthly auctions. Eat local specialities like Welsh lamb or salmon in one of the many pubs and restaurants. Go up to Penlan Park bandstand for fine views over the rooftops. Walk down to the Kings Bridge, a swinging foot bridge over the river, and wander among the river meadows with a chance to see herons, ducks, martins and even kingfishers or otters if you are lucky. Enjoy the range of good live music in local pubs and venues, especially at festival time. Just wander around, soaking up the relaxed atmosphere and enjoying the beautiful Georgian buildings. You will have to come further North ( North Wales ), lot's happening around here. Dickytwang Link to comment

Guest in town Mikey Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Jess I am doing it too. Never worked abroad before, although I realise that is the norm, what with you being a sceptic 'n all. I will be in Newport in South Wales. Close enough to the safety net of the Severn Bridge ;-) Link to comment
