Lovely Chris! What camera did you use?
We were fellow travellers and hope, like us, you enjoyed a jug of ale at The Sloop in Porth Gain or, more relevant to the past, at Bessie’s in the Gwaun Valley http://bit.ly/c1TNTz
Thank you John. That would be the $1.99 Hipstamatic.
Corinne, yes, a number of visits to The Sloop have occurred. Though in the future / past , it will be eclipsed by Bessie’s.
Astonishing photos. Like a magic lantern show. What was your favourite time period one asks ?! Particularly love the Ringers Shag snap.
Thank you, yes, the Ringer’s Shag turned out very well. My favourite time was 1797, the Volunteer Militia jacket was so brightly red…
Love those pics!
Ah lovely Pembrokeshire! My holidays when I was a kid were almost always there, usually staying on the seafront at Pendine with that fabulous beach, the waves crashing at night and the mysterious Proof and Testing Range. Know most of those places well, now so very far away from me here in Australia. Diolch yn fawr for the reminders Chris!
You are most welcome Chris. And here’s one of Pendine for you…
Thank you Chris!
