Three Cliffs Bay in the Gower

Three Cliffs Bay in the Gower. Been here lots of times over the years. When I was small, the Gower was a favourite holiday destination for our family - and travelling from Northampton pre most of the M4, it was quite a trip. I'm pretty sure that three cliffs was the scene of the only abandoned Packwood family holiday. We were in a tent and three days into our two week family summer holiday my mum and dad just gave up. It literally didn't stop raining for the entire time were there, so we packed up and went home. An absolutely beautiful spot though if you're ever down that way.

My little space on the internet is normally filled with holiday snaps, pictures of my latest car or a good moan about my football team. I never attempt anything particularly serious and actually I’m a bit worried about posting this – but if you’re reading it I guess I have. . I shouldn’t be worried. I live in the UK. I can say what I want and believe what I like so long as I don’t deliberately offend anyone or break any laws. That’s one of the best things about living here - generally speaking, despite all our faults, we usually rub along really well with our neighbours. We do, don’t we? So the question is: Why? I’m not a racist, or as far as I’m aware, not any sort of ’ist’. I guess I’m fundamentally a liberal. I try to see anyone’s point of view. I can see and...
