Last week was our annual holiday. Nothing special, just a few days in the South of Wales. We had planned a week but rain stopped play.

Saturday we drove down to Cardiff to meet up with my old next door neighbour, Ed. He's married and they've got a little girl who is about 6 months old. Went for a walk around Cardiff Bay for a beer or two then nipped into see my mate Joe at his new hotel opposite the Cardiff Millenium Centre. SLAMMER dropped in to join the party for a few cheeky beers then we headed back to Ed's for a takeaway balti and more beers.

Sunday we drove to Saundersfoot. We had planned to go shopping in Cardiff but a bombscare meant the city centre was sealed off.

We went into Tenby on Monday and I managed to get Sam on a boat for the short trip to Caldey Island. The Bluenose above is one of the strange craft they have to help keep a link with the mainland.

The weather was so bad on Tuesday that SkyNews were reporting Noah had come out of retirement. We took a drive to Bridgend and spent the day shopping for clothes. I found a Vans shop and went mad.

In true British fashion we forced ourselves on the beach. Wednesday's weather was a great improvement (no rain and glimpses of sun) and with the aid of 2 hired windbreakers the Lookers made sandcastles and ate ice cream. It wasn't tanning weather but Sam managed to get burnt.
