Jean Says: If you want a tattoo, Milford Haven is the place to come. In the local newsagents, there was a section of shelf devoted entirely to publications such as Tattoo World and What Tattoo magazine. There must be a lot you can say about tattoos that the uninitiated can't even begin to imagine. We asked directions to the town centre today and were told that we were in it, but if we were looking for sophistication, the marina was the place to go. I'm glad we know that now, because we might have left Milford Haven without appreciating it's finer points. MH, is not however the cultural desert you might imagine. There is a thriving theatre here called the Torch Theatre, and we're off there tonight to have pre theatre dinner (pie and chips), and to see a play called " Who's Afraid of Rachel Roberts". This is no amateur theatre. There are many well known actors and actresses that tread the boards here, so we're optimistic that the standard could be quite high. MH also has a bowling alley and a Tesco, but they don't sell postcards with Milford Haven written on them. Either they don't like to blow their own trumpet, or no-one ever comes here on holiday.

  1. Hi my dears, so proud of you all including BellaRosatheWonderBoat...it sounds so exciting & must give you a huge sense of self-satisfaction & smugness! Ian says if you want to see some real sights you should try Newport! We're back from our trip to the English Riviera - it really was lovely weather & we stupidly got a little sunburnt!! Enjoy the theatre, we'll be thinking of you while we tuck into our very un-springlike curry tonight! OLJ xx

  2. ahaaarrr Luverly Jubblies ...Oh, so that's where the sun's been all the time - down there with you. Well I suppose it's not called the English Riviera for nothing. Does anyone know where the Welsh Riviera is, or the Irish one for that matter, as we're hoping to head that way on Monday. Here's hoping that we can wear some of our summer clothes sometime in the next ten weeks as they're taking up valuable space that could have been used for booze, chocolate and CAKE. Glad you had a good time there. xxx

  4. Thanks for all your good wishes Wendy. We'll be here until Tuesday now I think because the Irish Sea looks positively demented for a few days. We may go directly to Dublin, but will have to keep an eye on the forecast. It'll all about wind......Looking forward to the wendyandchrisgotogerona blog coming up very soon xxx
