Diary: Eugene in Wales

Wednesday, 18 January 2006 20:16 by admin

These two weeks, I have been up in the lovely mountainous area that is North Wales. Here I have been Co-Hosting breakfast on Coast 96.3 with Ant McGinley, who I know back from the days of Student Radio. Last week we were at the Pub Quiz in the Antelope near Menai Bridge in Bangor. On Friday, I made a little trip back from Bangor to Teddington to go to a recording of Trisha. To be shown in the week of Valentines Day, lets just say, I gave some Girl advice! Yeah Right!

Then off to Leicester where I visited my mate Mark who does Karting at the Sutton Circuit in Leicester and works at Shop@Panasonic which I visited on Saturday. Sunday, I went to the AutoSport Show at the NEC in Brummy. It was great. Spoke to quite a few people and ended up buying a load of Subaru
Merchandise!

Back at Coast, I spent evening at the Rhyl vs Swansea match. Not being a big football expert, I really enjoyed it and even did the Mid match draw.

 Unfortunately, they lost to Swansea by one goal but put up a gallant effort. I briefly appeared on Match of the Day, though more amusingly, I got spotted and ended up signing loads of autographs!

Today I went up Snowdon. It was a challenge as I am not the fittest person in the world. We left at 12:30 getting to the Summit (6km away @ 1090m)in 3 hours, but we were quite leisurely, stopping and having a chat with other climbers.

At the summit we took some snaps then went down. I have now re-positioned my GPS Waypoint to the correct location. We got down on the dot of 18:00 after having walked for some five and a half hours and 16 Kilometres (10 Miles). This, of course, beats walking to the shops!

Right, off to the Indian! Eugene

Yes, but although I personally cannot swim myself, I can safely declare that I myself have been on holiday to North Wales in 2001 and have visited Portmeirion, Llanelli, Llangollen, Rhyl, Prestatyn, Colwyn Bay, Porthmadog and Llanfairpwllgwyngylliantilleriosiliogogogoch as well as Abergavenny and so on, along the way. Oh, and, in 1982, just before S4C went on air, I visited Abersoch along with my family and stayed in a caravan.
