Truely a legendary weekend. Debs - Brilliant. The whirlwind mystery tour was a blast the company was Top Notch & my guts still ache from laughing far too much.

Pesky Muz seems to have pretty much the same pics as us so can't offer much in addition. But I'll throw a few in all the same.

Anglesey is great - Even the toilets smell nice.
Image

115 steps up that twirly monument tower. Each one bigger than me. :(
Image

Image

Image

A select few of us made our way to the 4th lion, done up a bit like Eddie Izzard holding a bunch of flowers
Image

Next to Eddie were a couple of properties in need of a little TLC
Image

With an indoor garden
Image

Then on to windmills old . . .
Image

& new
Image

2AM & the kids want to crash out
