Ha ha, chortle chortle, jolly good, very funny. I imagine you're probably rather disappointed that "the Welsh" don't conform to your hoped for stereotype, and haven't gone all up in arms to give you the opportunity to do a little of your trademark superiority sneering.Exactly. Hardly any. When you look at the map, Wales is perhaps the second most devoid-of-outstanding-beauty part after the English Midlands. When you're not even doing as well as England (yes, England!), I'd suggest it's time to quietly drop the "World Class" claims.
Apologies for making posts that were direct responses to your points which were addressed to me specifically. Having reflected on my actions I realise they were totally out of order and not the sort of thing that should be accepted on urban75.
You realised that? Really?
I think it would be best all round if you just left this forum completely free of your usual disruptive sarcasm and sneering.
Here's a picture of Solva.
It's "Solfach" in Welsh, and - as that Wiki article will probably tell you - it was one of the places from which many people left to emigrate to the United States.
Yes I saw that, but even as Anglicised Welsh names go, Solva seems a bit of a strange one.
On this part of the coast, there are strange and interesting things that happen: there are names that owe more to Norse than Welsh, and places with odd names like "Moylegrove" that appear to have some kind of Irish derivation.
That's it, it's in the top corner of the bay before the coast swings round to Caerfai (hell of a view across the whole bay from there, oil/LNG tankers and all!) and out to the St Davids peninsula.
And of course I believe the National Park in Pembrokeshire is the nation's only coastal National Park.
I'd like to answer your question but the thought police have banned me from talking about it. Sorry.
Ah well never mind eh etc.
I'm the other side of the Aberdaucleddau: it's just that Haverfordwest to St Davids is the world-class scenic part of my route to work. The rest is merely pleasant, of a standard one might associate with, say, the Midlands.You live in Haverfordwest?
I was born there.
Yes, that's quite impressive. As is standing at the bottom of that dam and thinking about a) how bloody deep the lake behind it is, and b) how many millions of gallons of water are lurking just behind that few feet of rocks and concrete...
And back on topic, here's a truly stunning view of the Brecon Beacons:

Continent-class, might we say?
