The video below is a strange one, I won't spoil it for you but the poem/lyric is very quaint and the location kind of taints the sentiment. Have a look and decide for your self.

| Not ugly, LLigwy beach |
As the weather turned to the usual welsh rain, we retreated back to our caravan for tea. Whilst we were eating our caravan prepared food, the rain poured down and we could hear the pitter patter of rain drops on the caravan roof. I heard a strange warbling but familiar sound of the ice cream van. Surely not when it's raining, but it was true and a queue of parents and kids formed in the rain to to get their holiday treats. They are on holiday after all.
All that above was yesterday technically our day 2.
So onto day 3.
So today we went to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch I had to copy and paste that because it is a fairly complicated word to recall.
My only thought when looking at the name is, 'What were they thinking?'
Anyway, the kids need the laptop to watch harry potter so I will continue this update in the morning.
Kids have gone to bed so I can continue with the details of our day today.
After visiting the longest name in Britain railway station and adjoining shops we went on to the National Trust property at Plas Newydd which is a lovely big house and massive gardens. We didn't go into the house but just stayed outdoors and wandered through the gardens.
Today they had lots of stuff for the kids to do, such as juggling, frisbee-ing, diablos and a compass led map reading session.
We got the map, instructions and compass, but were too lazy to follow the compass and went straight to the end, which was a lovely tree house. Well, my wife was having trouble with her knee so we couldn't do too much walking!
There are some spectacularly massive trees here and the photos can't convey the absolute massiveness of these grand old trees.
