	Good Luck Shaun Sue's thread is great and we do have a few laughs now and then, and of course we do have a bit of a mixture a couple of Welsh ones and a few Poms as well as our lovely Aussies. I have no doubt if you have read the thread that you know I live in All Black country but we do like to play the Welsh. Though it is now time for Rugby Sevens here played in Wellington every year and all the spectators don fancy dress. I am wondering if my daughter (8 months pregnant) and my SIL will be going as they normally do attend. Persie of Tywyn.

	Scb - I fell for Broad Haven, beautiful beach, gigantic portions of fish, peaceful. AAAAAAAAAaaaah! We rented a cottage there for a week, weather was glorious too - so much for Wales and rain. Whenever we stayed in N Wales with friend always had good weather too.

	Hi Chris, Glad you liked your stay in Broad Haven you should of gone up the coast to Solva and then St.Davids brilliant . Regarda,Shaun on the Mountain.

	Hi Shaun, Husband's Mother was born in Wales, does that count, we are not so far in Gloucester from the Welsh boundary. Love South Wales and had quite a few holidays in South and North Wales when the children were young.

	Aww, thank's Shaun. Mind you, i have just googled Prickly Leek but there is no such thing. Which mean's, i will have to resort to Wend's suggestion of CheekyLeeky! Speaking of Leek's Wend, is your's under control today? Oh yeah, and i loved Harry Seycombe's version of "If I Ruled The World" x
