Waiting

Hi folks

Just a quick update to let you all know that James and I are still on for the trip but the weather has been against us to date. There is a possibility that this coming Monday may offer a green light so will keep our fingers crossed!

Bagnol Caravan Park


The vans on plot.




Agent Fudge and one of the many wood sculptures on the site


I must thank Johnny and Danny who very kindly let us stay at Bagnol Caravan Park for free as part of their kind sponsorship. The site was clean, tidy and the showers were great. The site is ideally situated only a mile or two away from our proposed set off point. The site also has some amazing wood carvings as you can see one in the picture. The wood carver/artist used a chainsaw!

Thanks again guys and we will contact you soon regarding a second attempt to cross the pond.

A great place to stay so check out their website www.caravan-park-anglesey.co.uk

The Internet Cafe


Whilst staying in Anglesey I needed somewhere to get onto the Internet and check the daily weather reports. Gary and I were told to visit The Internet Cafe in Holyhead run by Mark and his wife Sandra. Not only did they do a cracking fried breakfast but Mark worked for Holyhead Port Control and he gave us plenty of advice. If you are ever travelling in this part of the world I would recommend a visit to check your email over a latte or two! Take a look at their site http://www.holyheadnetcafe.co.uk/


Thanks Mark


Barry, James and Gary
