THE NAKED PHOTO ALBUM - HOW DO YOU GET TWO - WHALES IN A MINI...? This page has some pictures that draw us to a single possible conclusion to the question above. The answer has to be, Over the Severn Bridge: My Welsh Holidays.

PAUL'S THOUGHT: SOME JOBS ARE BEST RUSHED.

Wales is a funny place. It's sort of like England, but then it's like being abroad too, because you can't read the road signs, pronounce the place names or understand the locals. Costa-del-Rhyl. Anyway, we've been a couple of times (or Lltymes, as the locals would say) and, between the rain storms, it's very nice. My first visit took me to the North, and Lake Vyrummmm... never did learn how to pronounce that! But this picture is from my more recent trip to Abergavenny in the South. This is me in Puzzlewood, which is a kind of maze in an amazing, prehistoric looking woodland. Those legs are my own. Places to visit: Really anywhere except Merthyr Tydfil, which can best be described as the most god-forsaken hole on the face of the Earth....and that's being polite.

PAUL'S THOUGHT: IT'S NOT WORTH DYING FOR THE TOILET.

This is Lake Vyrummmm as mentioned above. I spent a lovely weekend here courtesy of the company I worked for at the time. I won two nights in a very beautiful hotel for Judith and I. This is the view out of our bedroom window. This is also a view used in television adverts by the Welsh Tourist Board to lour folks to visit. And you know, I think it'll work.

PAUL'S THOUGHT: IF YOU GO BACK, AND EVERYTHING IS
SMALLER, IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASSUME YOU'VE GROWN?

Portmeirion is the famous 'Village' from the 60's cult TV series The Prisoner. I visited it in the autumn of 1998 and found it to be an enchanting spot full of whimsy and invention. The atmosphere was just as I had imagined it to be. If you're ever at this corner of the world, I urge you to visit this unique place and linger a moment at the lighthouse, thinking of me. :-)
