llywelaAh. This is how bank holidays should always be.
Today I went down to the Bay for the Gwŷl Calon Mai (May Day Festival) and it was fantastic - a real carnival atmosphere, with samba bands and dancing, stalls of every description, and bright sunshine for most of the day. Fantastic.
I also took the water bus out to the barrage and spent far too long staring in fascination at the boats going in and out of the sea lock. It is amazing how interesting it is, given how boring it sounds.
Saus and mash for lunch before the boat trip, then later on afternoon tea with chocolate cake at the Norwegian Church on the waterfront, and then Cadwaladers ice cream on the jetty before returning home.
And it only rained once (while I was on the barrage) - sunny and warm most of the day.
Fantastic.
