    Glorious and so much ring activity. Ginormous congratulations. For a mad-bad-and-dangerous-to-know kinda Vlogger you very nearly got all romantic on us hard hearted viewers. Loving your work as always and loving you for being clever and rude and sly and forgetting the food. I haven’t been to Wales, whales or wails for 3 years and 9 years since I was in Conwy. Better find my way there this summer. Love, peace and don’t forget the food! X

    Conwy Castle is mighty impressive, and glad to see you got some food after leaving what you made at home! And that mountain... Saw a curiosity at my local station last weekend - thought it was an HST set but it wasn't. Yes, it was powered by a couple of Class 43s, but it was a Network Rail track monitoring train. Never seen that before! Neat stuff. Wish I had the confidence to do something like this!

We enjoyed the train rides, Colwyn to Conwy then Conwy to Llandudno Junction then to Llandudno for tea at the wetherspoons! Conwy wasn't a request stop then, will have to remember that for our next visit! Blessed day 😀💜
