This is Llangrannog
One of our very local beaches and villages
These pictures were
taken a couple of weekends ago
(Obviously would never take pupster to a firework display)
We first visited here on a bright September
Sunday afternoon back in 2013
when we "found" our house
We sort of fell in love with this place..
Little Man has named this rock
"Godzilla"
because he thinks in looks just like
the monster in the movie!
Every year the village puts on a free firework display.
(Funded by local businesses)
Last year it was absolutely pouring down
so we didn't go
But
although there was the odd bit of rain
this year we did.
It was held last Friday , the 30th October .
The display is free and you must get there early
We parked in the free car park
and slid all over field,
a free courtesy bus transports you to the beach
we got there at 4 and already it was PACKED !!
and I mean packed!
The bonfire had already been constructed
The actual display was amazing
All properly done
All the fireworks were in sand mounds
Loads of volunteers keeping everyone off the beach
and safe
They lite the bonfire
and time it so the incoming tide
extinguishes the flames.
As we have youngsters we left after the display about 7ish
but know lots of people make "a night of it"
Then the next morning we thought we
would nip back and give pupster a
run
Back to normal
This is all that was left of the bonfire
and this was soon cleared away by
The team of volunteers
who turn up the next morning to
clear the rubbish
and restore the village to
it's beautifulness again.
But
I spotted this
On top of the bin furtherest
Away in the picture
Yes , a pair of trousers and trainers!!
With a lovely mosaic in the background
Thankfully no reports of any missing
Party goers have been reported thank goodness.
Made me wonder did someone fancy a midnight dip!
I did laugh , thinking of some youngster
waking up trouser and trainer less
And wondering "where did I leave them?"
Hope you have a safe
firework night
See you soon

I will go and find it next time I am in Cardigan, we usually go to Tresaith, the children love it.
ReplyDeleteWe love Llangranog did you see it on Tv last night bbc2 wales are doing a series on the area they won the award for the best public toilets I think :-)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds such fun and sensibly done too. Not ONE firework locally, but then we are a very small community.
