Headed over to Anglesey for a break headed to back of RAF Valley to one of our fave spots at Cwmyran....
Now blocked with a shiny galvanised gate and no camping/cars/sleeping/anything signs (due apparently to a group of motorhomes parking accross the emergency access road to Valley and refusing to move when asked by RAF Valley security)

Luckily found a small spot overlooking one of the RSPB reserve.... Loverly and quiet.

Moved on and now on a little 5 pitch CS near to holyhead....
£12 a night without leccy
£15 with....
Shower/toilet wash room/chem disposal and grey water drop...

Nicely laid out and well spaced... On hardstanding....
Having a couple of nights here as developed slipping clutch intermittently so need to find a garage.

Nice photo (y)
 
Headed to Cemaes Bay for some lunch (wood fired pizza by the looks)
Sun's out (and so are people....)
Breezy BUT fantastic to be away...
Headed for a car spares shop tomorrow to order a clutch slave cylinder to try to resolve our clutch issues (easiest and cheapest thing to replace first... AND from a quick nosy this morning it doesn't seem to be returning to a fully released position)

I've had a clutch slave cylinder which stuck in the operated position, the AA said it was impossible :)

The AA do have their moments....

Once when I had to call them out to a, broken cam chain on one of the landrovers...
Explained lack of progress due to the distributor not turning

Once when I explained the works van had siezed its engine solid....

Both times a patrol had to turn out pointlessly....
To be met with much shaking of heads from all of us at the waste of time and resources.
 
Headed for peace and quiet at Porth Tywyn Mawr
Loverly quiet beach for the dogs to hoon about on....

Headed to Moelfre today and had fab fish and chips sat overlooking the Harbour then on to Lligwy to walk the dogs on a largely empty beach (car park would make a great pitch up... Barring the signs/ANPR cameras....

Windy BUT lovely on the beach...

I feel like I am doing this trip with you, thanks for all the photos, and updates.👍
I'm a bit like a giddy school kid.... Been a, long time since we were away properly in the Moho...
Barring a couple or so weekend breaks it's been nearly 2 1/2 years (Dad was taken poorly then covid kicked in)
Since We were let off the lead properly....
Sad that some, of our favourite wild spots have gone BUT, I can live with nice CLs and very quiet (almost wild (as in pitch where you like) basic sites like this one...
And delighted at £15 per night
AND the lack of 'Peoplyness'

I'd almost forgotten how much fun it is waking to the sound of the waves ;-)
