Title: The Madman of North Wales
Post by: John on May 09, 2019, 00:39
Sometimes it’s easy to get the wrong end of the stick. I’m afraid I managed to convince some visitors to our fair land that they might have blundered into the land of the crazies. All will become clear.

Sounds a perfectly logical and sensible approach to me... in fact exactly the sort of thing I would do.
Some people have no imagination - why would that be out of the ordinary? ;)

You might get more visitors now - sight-seeing tours... then you could charge for cream teas and keep up the entertainment :)

Good luck with the little bits - they sure can be a pain to track and remove.

Mummy, Mummy! There's a man hoovering the grass over there!
Hush, darling, he's probably Welsh :) :) :)

Take care - there will be trouble in the valleys if that gets out!!  :tongue2:

Not mad at all!

I've still got some baler twine from 1988, when I was building a barn for a farmer! It lasts for years!

I bet you'll get a call from Mantis or Flymo soon,...

It's you Pescador!

Just a few days ago, I remembered a friend telling me about Miskin Manor, as he knew the owners, and in a former life, I was always looking at hotels for development! We didn't go there eventually, but it's apparently a fine establishment!

But I couldn't understand why I kept thinking about the place recently, until I saw your home label!

Problem solved, so I'm not going barmy..;0)

Thank you, and enjoy your weekend, knowing that you've relieved an ageing Growster of a worrying memory situation!

LOL - odd thing is how in some ways I feel Welsh and others English.
This year we have a great idea to keep the tourists out. We're building a wicker man!

Why not cut out the middle man, and build a wicker greenhouse!
