    Hi Girls!

    I wonder if we could name any of them.

  8. Why bother with a KFC when all you had to do was pull over into a layby and cook your own.
  9. Why has that tractor got an illegal number plate on it ?
  10. Us Celts are the tops. The "Foil Cape of Brynaman" is a 3rd century relic made from pure platinum which was, at the time, mined exclusively in the British Isles near Prestatyn. The cape was beaten from a single piece of platinum, probably using deer antler & conkers. The cape was unearthed in 1938 in upper Brynaman by a local farmer whilst clearing an old well. Incredibly he used the cape to patch a hole in a shed roof until it was recognised for what it was 30 years later, when a travelling antiques dealer spotted it gleaming in the summer sun. The cape was taken to the British Museum for verification and restoration. The farmer received £1000 in compensation from the Queen which he used to buy the first Ford Capri in West Wales at a cost of £890. The cape is believed to have been commissioned by Arglwydd Arfryn (Lord Arfryn) a fierce warlord who ruled all the lands from Garnant to Cwmllynfell. He was defeated at the battle of Cwm Gors by Sir Keith of Monmouth in 378. Sir Keith happened to be passing through when he accidentally spilt a pint of mead belonging to Arfryn in the beer garden of the Queen of Hearts. All hell broke loose and Arfryn, who was on his ninth pint, was slain as he attempted to order a tenth mid battle. Sir Keith continued on his journey, and the area, particularly north of the Napoli pizza and kebab takeaway has remained lawless until this very day. The local heritage society is raising funds in order to commission a replica of the cape and to restore the Ford Capri, both of which would go on display in the proposed Upper Brynaman Museum which will have a cafe serving hot and cold snacks and Welshcakes.
  11. While we are showing what we look like now :- Pretty good for a 70 year old.
  12. Me and Dipper saying good bye to Pete.
  13. No I don't. Our farm was near there, but since we left in 1978 it has become a housing estate. The area of Ely in Cardiff where last night's riot started has been identified as an area of 'deep-rooted deprivation'. The area's been within the top 50 most deprived areas in Wales out of 1,909 - since 2005. The same as Mayhill in Swansea - where a riot happened in 2021. Almost three decades ago, a Cardiff suburb erupted into days of chaos as hundreds brought the city to a knife edge in an alleged dispute over a loaf of bread. For four consecutive nights, from August 30, 1991, Ely in Cardiff west became a hubbub of arson and aggravation as rioters took hold of the streets.
  14. Only because I didn't want you to think I was a spoilt brat.
  15. I passed the Eleven plus.
