  The only brief time I had a warm glow when I had a lovely cuddle with a Victorian beauty pearly queen, strictly for the photographers of course

You are an old charmer Mike. Hope you don't suffer from a chill. Might see you tomorrow if it is fit to turn out and I haven't got pneumonia !

Mike / Nemesis, you put us all to shame...

It took me ages tonight to get warmed through, I sincerely hope you don't suffer as a result of your Victorian endeavours.  $good$

A shame that Mr Alexander was unable to perform his excellent show yesterday, due to the weather. Hopefully, he will be in action today and Monday, it's well worth seeing.  $good$

Thanks for that Fester. I really should never have set off, but thought about all the people who put so much time and effort into organising such a gargantuan event, so decided to brave it ! Hope to be there again at 1pm today as it is now fine and I think I am up to date with work.

Thanks Wrex and Crew $good$

Thanks Fester. Had another go today -- what a difference. Warm, sunny and a very, very large crowd clapping and cheering. Only bad spot, my caddy said his arms were aching from carrying the golf bag, and could you leave one of the two clubs he was carrying to make it lighter. I doubt anyone of his age will read this, he is about 17. So no one will be offended. But it makes you wonder, he is from the age who will have to look after us all in the future. And two clubs were too heavy. The mind boggles.

Llandudno was absolutely jam packed today; even West Shore was full with people parking and walking in to the centre of town, great to see and I hope that the traders and shops had a good day although I must admit to be surprised to see shops closed on such a busy day.

My only gripe was the awful scruffiness of some of the Policing staff present, (mainly PSCO's) that was utterly embarrassing. The British Police uniform has obviously had to evolve to meet current needs, but some of today's staff need to be told who and what they represent, look in the mirror and tidy themselves up.
Being negative only makes a difficult journey more difficult. You may have been given a cactus, but you don't have to sit on it.

They don't make 'em like they used to Mike!   This is why we need a nuclear deterrent, because we would get our backsides kicked in 10 minutes flat is we tried to fight a conventional scrap!    &shake& &shake&

A successgul Extravaganza, I think, in spite of the poor weather on the first day. Well done to Wrex and all the committee members and volunteers who worked hard to make it happen.  $good$

Yes thanks to Wrex, well organised as ever.
  Going back to Nemises's post , the plug in my caddies ear. I had' the noticed that until I heard people in the crowd shouting "give us a leaflet. Give us a leaflet. Give us a leaflet" now I know why

   Just thought. I've got a plug in both ears. Perhaps he thought it was a part of the company dress code

 He had to walk back up the Orme. Not very happy, but his fault. Too impatient to wait 5 mins in the Cafe. He thought I was in front of him but actually I was behind. No wonder all the onlookers didn't know what it was all about.  Thank goodness I,ve got a glass of wine in my hand so I,m in a good mood
