I went to Conwy Shimms. Gower is very beautiful. I went pony trekking there with a friend as a teenager, at Parc-le-Breos House in Parkmill. I bought a lovely Palomino welsh pony from them while I was there and dad had to go all the way there to fetch him back in a borrowed trailer!!

You will get there, darling Shimms, and you will have a wonderful time. No doubts. Just remember about Meri, who can't do anything, or go anywhere without throwing up. But she struggles on and so will you, and it will be worth it.

I'm sure once your on the way you'll be fine.
Have a fantastic time.X
