This was a great day as there was a birthday in the family and we went to one of my favourite places to eat. I try to go here as often as I can as it is only open every year from Easter until the end of Oct. Its such a lovely place for many reasons; the summer months give the opportunity to sit and eat in the peaceful gardens surrounded by beautiful landscape views. The cherry on the cake so to speak, is the excellent freshly prepared home made food.The service is friendly and I guarantee you will return, however the only down side is the typical British weather. Due to its popularity you may have to get your timing just right to avoid disappointment in getting a seat inside if the weather is a little cold for you to sit out. So if you are anything like me you will have an early lunch and be the first there when they open.

LLangollen Camera Club
The Club was one of many that was approached to display images in the Festival this year and the theme was THE RIVER DEE. This year the viewing was held in the Royal Hotel. Like the previous years we have taken part in the festival but the viewing of everyone's work was then held in the Llangollen Pavilion. This was also a great chance for many locals and visitors in the town to see the exhibition that was organised by Ann Murray.
Apologies in advance if I have missed anyone's work or have names mixed up with photo images.

We then split up for a short while and I was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time especially with my camera. The image above is I feel that lucky shot, the skies were dark and moody while the light was strong enough just to light up the top of the roof and draw the colours out.
Courtyard coffee shop just off Castle St. was where we had planned to meet up for a drink before we then headed back. This is also a really nice small cafe which as a bonus makes great coffee.The image of the bench above was taken in the court yard.
This last shot I couldn't resist as it is an all too familiar scene which will be lost with a generation I feel.
