Whitesands bay near St Davids and taking a speedboat trip off the beach or St Julians lifeboat station round the islands, sat on the side of a rigid inflatable spray in your face flying along.

Port eynon on the gower wandering back to a tent after a few beers in the pub and chips on the way

the wye valley as you head down the M50 and on towards newport where the road dips and climbs and the trees are a million colours of orange , red and brown in the autumn with the sun shining on them

Sunset over Cardigan Bay at Aberystwyth (in winter on a clear cold day)

View from the top of the Black Mountain in Carmarthenshire - one way over Mid Wales t'other over towards Swansea

The view when you cross the border from England into Wales -like on the Hereford - Brecon road.

I'll be in one of those two pubs at lunchtime! My two regulars in Caernarfon.

Do you go there often? Maybe we should meet up for a drink one day.

I'd be too scared to go out in Caernarfon at night
Maybe a lunchtime though.
We sometimes go to the Fat Cat for lunch in Bangor, more a bar than a pub but good all the same.

Castell Dinas Bran - I grew up a couple of miles from there and it's still one of my favourite places in the world

Llanddwyn Island, Anglesey - on a stormy Spring day - sigh

Nant Gwynant - waking up in a tent to clear, clean air, deep blue sky and the sight of the lakes, trees and mountains is something really special
