We do have pure air in these parts though (hence the ferns growing on the trees) and I can vouch for the pure water as we have spring water here. Who knows? Think of Richard Burton's wonderful speaking voice. There's lovely : )<br /><br />Suzie - like you, I prefer the male voice choir, and for the same reasons. I got quite choked in the supermarket yesterday and had to bury my head in a magazine.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-12535992258676530552014-03-02T04:04:28.462-08:002014-03-02T04:04:28.462-08:00What a lovely bit of family history you have told....What a lovely bit of family history you have told. I love to hear a choir singing and almost prefer the male voice choirs as I find womens choirs can sometimes be a bit too high for my tastes.SeagullSuziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15857680854262709165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-59451946954815454782014-03-02T02:31:45.900-08:002014-03-02T02:31:45.900-08:00Here in North Yorkshire BB it was our monthly Vill...Here in North Yorkshire BB it was our monthly Village Hall Coffee morning and every table had a little welsh flag on it in honour of S David's day, so we did remember you.<br />Welsh male voice choirs - who can resist them. They are wonderful - is it something to do with the water they drink, or the air they breathe or something that makes them sing so beautifully?The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-46734825132590550302014-03-02T00:04:39.228-08:002014-03-02T00:04:39.228-08:00C/Tales - oh yes, we have certainly lost the simpl...C/Tales - oh yes, we have certainly lost the simplicity of living as folk did 100 years ago. We might moan about the Nanny State, but at least there are some safety nets now (although from family experience, there are some deliberate blardy great holes cut in them for folk to fall through) and health care is immeasurably better.<br /><br />Chris - I've only been to Llandudno once, when the children were small. Nice spot though. You're one up on us, we dont have a "Croeso" plaque at the front door!<br /><br />parsnip - I hope your son enjoys it.Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-9069502588598020222014-03-01T21:55:58.293-08:002014-03-01T21:55:58.293-08:00I must remember this for my son.

My in-laws lived in Llandudno. I love Wales.
