Was lucky to have survived the night after a few terrrifying nocturnal journeys (part prostrate part beer related) down the cottages steep internal spiral staircase !

Drove with our friends to beautiful Tenby on the coast on a lovely sunny day. Tenby is a beaut walled town with Victorian style buildings dominating the cliff side esplanade providing for great views of the sea and its almost Australian like beach (take away the sub zero water temperatures)

After a lazy walk and some seafood we quickly visited the impressive castle town of Pembroke on the way back as well as the lovely cathedral city (more a village) of St Davids (smallest city in England) and its nostalgic ruins - glorious in such weather !

Back at the cottage with a beautiful setting sun we journeyed down through nearby fields to the coast to the Blue Lagoon a sea filled quarry where we were treated to teenagers in wet suits leaping some 30-40 feet from rocks into the uniquely coloured water - we wisely decided not to join in , not until after dinner !

It was a great night with good friends as Anna put together a lovely dinner & Jack & Geoff (two of the three stooges) regailed us with many a riotous story of our soccer clubs characters who provided for a colorful if not too successful history !
