    Oh aye; many times... Clambered around the rocks there fishing, fallen in a few times n'all

    My folks had property between Rhoscolyn and Rhosneigr; sold it though as it just didn't get used (sold it to a family friend, so we still stay there at times); but spend most of the time Beaumaris way and fish a lot at Penmon/White Beach/Moelfre etc

    What do you fish for down there Dan? I used to love a bit of sea fishing me. But it was always in Scotland. Mrs Pony bought me all the kit a few years ago and I've still not made use of it. I just need somewhere to go with it.

    It's been really nice today. 23C with blue sky and sunshine. Can't grumble for mid September. Should be warmer for a few days too.

    And Geoff's not kidding - I was down at St. Thomas' Hospital, near the London Eye this afternoon, and it was sunny and really quite warm, a lot better than oop north. I would happily have stayed there, but the dickhead drivers spoiled it a bit.

    It's a bright sunny day and 24C, but the wind is picking up strongly. Probably the remains of that cyclone that's crossed the Atlantic.
