Suzanne. He lives in Ty Bach, Nefyn. When you get to Nefyn, look for the signs for cyfleusterau (conveniences). He is fully bilingual, so is happy to talk to you in either of your languages (ie with or without, lacy or plain).

I will be in Spar in the morning to buy over £200 of groceries and leave them on the counter in protest. See how much publicity Conrad gets out of that ;-) About time he stopped bullying dear little old men. He certainly won't get one over me :-0 Grey power rules. ;-)

Over 600 hits, Sue. And I am black and blue with all this violence. :-0 :-0 :-( :-(

MrDaff has changed his mind about me. Says I am a charming and pleasant man. I knew you would all like me in the flesh :-) ;-).

Now where has Suzanne gone? Women drivers with sat navs with posh female voices. Hope she's not lost on the Snowdon Pyg Track :-S :-S

Ooohhh Hayley - you have made an old man very happy. Pressed the right buttons for me :-D :-D

Wend. I like to keep my sleeping habits private. Hope you understand.

I drove up to Pwllheli after work today and am now sitting in the back of a police car with a very Welsh MrDaff. We are firing englynion (those short Welsh verses on gravestones) at each other. Getting a bit tired now so we are both thinking of sleep.

Just woried about Suzanne half way up Snowdon on such a cold night. How we both wish she was safe with us on the Spar car park :-) No good reporting it to the police, because MrDaff has their only vehicle and the police occupants are lost and exposed - just like Suzanne :-0 :-0 :-0

Hope you've got a blanky and a torch with you to read up on your Welsh 'polite' phrases to pass the time, Suzanne. It could be a long, cold night in your car in just a pair of frilly knicks ;-)

Looking forward to a 'Spar' update in the morning :-D

I have no interest in your sleeping habits John, as I'm sure you wouldn't wish to know mine, but I bid you good night and hope you sleep well ;-)

Wend. I have been thinking of frilly nicks a lot tonight on my long journey north. From Brecon to Dolgellau, I could think of nothing else.

I have just gone through the change of clothes for the morning. And there are some socks. On the label it says: "Warnings. Remove Kimble with Scissors. Keep Hook away from small children. Keep away from fire and flame"

Now I thought it was a pair of socks. What is a kimble and why do a pair of socks have a hook?

And I have never before worried about my socks going up in flames.

I am going to sleep looking very warily at my pair of socks. So is MrDaff. :-(

"I doubt Diane will be any prouder of her father and her ancestors that many of us are of ours. And they were all individuals - whether they achieved a lot or a little"

John maybe I'm a bit thick, but not sure why your comment about me being or not being proud was made :-S

In my post I was making a point of you always spouting how well achieved and knowlegeable you are and who you know, but with all this knowledge and connection you don't seem to be able to understand or see why you upset so many people on the threads.
In case you wondered why I put up details of my Uncle's achievements I did this because he is a man I have a lot of respect for, he is a man who gets a lot of respect and doesn't demand it, he is respected for what he has achieved in life but also because even with all that he has achieved he is also a humble man who would never disrespect some-one elses ideals or choices ( after all he speaks to me ) and I am the black sheep in the family, he treats me as an equal not something he just stepped in, my point is I have come across many in my life time who think they are above other's " including me " and treat some people as second class citizens and this attitude riles me, the way I see it is the said Dr Lewis is one of these people and seem's to think he has right's above some of his fellow human being's, You earn some-one's respect you do not DEMAND it, well not from me you don't.

Yes even though my Father had some faults and he did sometime's show disrespect to other's, he also had some very good qualities about him, one being he respected me for who I was and did accept and admit that because of the way he had been brought up he had his faults a failure's and his way of thinking was not always right all the time, that made me very proud of him and that is why I respected him .

Despite the spats it was a damn good thread, modesty aside...lolol

My complaint has gone in. If it's not reinstated an awful lot of people who had researched for ages before they added would have wasted their time.

Plus we had a laugh in places
