Bongo Fury

I don't know of many places in Bangor apart from the pier http://www.theheritagetrail.co.uk/piers ... 20pier.htm as loopyloo said

and the cathedral http://www.churchinwales.org.uk/bangor/cathedral/

oh and of course the bridges http://www.anglesey-history.co.uk/places/bridges/ actually I'll have a check see if you can drive under Menai Bridge now

The library thing goes on til 1pm so we could meet at the pub by the pier if everyone fancies it?
The only other place I know nearby that does good grub is the Four Crosses http://www.fourcrossesinn.co.uk/index.p ... e&Itemid=1

There's Oriel Ynys Mon in Llangefni who are doing welsh spoon making for kids, £3 a head at 11am-12.30pm and 1.30pm-3pm but you need to book. http://www.anglesey.gov.uk/eventdetails ... event=1565

It's a fab place for old and young, exhibitions and local history http://www.attractionsnorthwales.co.uk/ ... l-ynys-mon

At the moment there's the Iwan Gwyn Parry Exhibition http://www.anglesey.gov.uk/eventdetails ... event=1533


Plas Newydd are advertising an event for St Dwynwen's Day, but when I rang them they knew nothing about it

Or of course there's always a walk through the forest or on the beach over to Llanddwyn Island http://www.visitanglesey.co.uk/en-GB/st ... y-992.aspx which is only a mile or two from the campsite

and a mile from the campsite is a cafe open this weekend which is not far from the stepping stones over the Afon Braint http://www.britishwalks.org/walks/2003/407.php

there's also a walk nearby over dunes and through fields to the estuary where wild horses roam and I got a bit scared when some cows followed us last time we went

There's not much to do round here

or we could just go to Hootons http://www.hootonshomegrown.com/ buy some local produce, go back to the campsite and have a bbq and a drink or two

Any pub with food and beer for lunch will do

Might have to take a look at the homegrown stuff for dinner Saturday night

Can't wait... only 3 more days of work for us and we're ready to roll ... yay!

Was it good though? We'll probably need to shop on Saturday afternoon for food for BBQ or to cook in the Bongo... won't be as fancy as Muz's food though, might have to be pot noodles..

We've got all our ingredients for Saturday, anyone is welcome to partake but I must forewarn you it has some unmentionable bits of pig sourced from Spain (well, Edinburgh but it's close )

Anything with chorizo & morcilla has got to be a winner

I dread to think what it is

Not a sausage butty ??

Haggis?

No, no sheep will have been exterminated in the preparation of our meal

So are we looking at whoever wants to go and see Derek and Sali Mali on Sat morning heading to Bangor, and then maybe all meet up at the pier and have lunch in the pub opposite who does the stotties (Tap & Spile)

Used to frequent that pub a lot in my student days - great food and real ale too.

Muz - are your ingredients for lunch or supper?

What to do in the afternoon, bearing in mind it still goes dark quite early. Head back to camp and start partying early or find a quick something to do. Beaumaris is always nice! Pop to Waitrose in Menai Bridge on the way for some Royal spotting??

Any thoughts?? Come ont Debs - thought you'd have load of suggestions!!
