Weekend in Wales


After the usual ridiculous wait in the hire car office  (seriously Avis, sort it out, you have the details, you don’t need to piss about with everything, just give us the keys) we escaped for the weekend. We headed home to make a plan. We had a quick scout around on the internet and decided…
