kanny 19,389 Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 We're in Anglesey, Cemaes Bay area. It's the most Northerly town in Wales. Really nice countryside up here and it's a massive bonus having the sea nearby Nice.....a pal of mine bought a place around Montgomery/Berriew way so ive spent a fair bit of time travelling around North Wales of late Llandudno is a place i really like we havent managed to get as far over as Anglesey yet but its all a smashing part of the world up there. Yeh it's amazing especially if you appreciate the countryside, you have a bit of everything here because of the way the rocks are, if the weather is bad it's just a 30-40 minute drive to the other side of the island for more shelter. Lots of rabbits and hare here as well and not a badger in sight lol There's no grey squirrels but plenty of reds and the bird life is brilliant It's also a great place for woodcock and snipe for the shooters If you ever visit get in touch and I'll bore you to death about the rocks lol sedimentary, metamorphic, or igneous? Lol All three my fine fellow! We have the finest example of an accretionary arc/wedges in the UK and probably one of the best in the world You should also visit We can get hammered and stoned... Rave on! I have a craking geology hammer lolSome jokes just fluorite over my head There's never a day I don't admire the 'cleavage' in these rocks....lovely 'orogeny' zones though.... You geologists will date anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If there total budget was only £17k the merc must have been on the book and the birds business wasn't that good .. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
