Tell Me Something............Anything!

Cheers fellas, I think we'll just enjoy being somewhere else for a few days. And I intend to (never done this before) keep my phone switched OFF! So no work-related nonsense, and any family/friends emergencies can come via Anita's mobile :)

If it's nearly as good as last years trip round Scotland, which was great despite pissing down almost every day, it'll do for me.

Yups... You're about an hour or so from some gorgeous, uncrowded beaches, and less than half an hour from some gorgeous countryside, with as many quaint towns/villages, pubs and good eateries as you can shake a stick at, coupled with fast and convenient access to major motorway networks, and 20 mins from the beautiful and historic city of Chester.

For outright stunning scenery though, Snowdonia and Anglesey are where it's at, and can be reached relatively quickly by car - certainly close enough to be able to leave Wrexham after breakfast and spend a good day in either, and get home well before bedtime, although perhaps not in your case!:D

Everywhere we've tried is either fully booked or stupidly expensive, but the Pontins is £350 for four days bed breakfast and evening meal. And our plan is for it to be our base, going out somewhere each day to explore places of interest (there must be some). So the Knobbly Knees contest will have to cope without me :)

Lesson learned though - if you want to stay somewhere nice, you should heed old Fred Pontin's advice and "Book Early":thumbsup:

Snapchat? What's that? Is that the one where you post a picture and it disappears after a minute? That happened to me all the time until I gave up :(

Is there anything about my posting history that has led you to believe I'm good with technology, or even social media? :doh: I've got Mrs. P for all that nonsense. She thinks I play dumb on purpose, but I'm really not pretending :)

I suppose I'll just have to wait for Skippy the bush kangaroo then.
