There is no sand at Llandudno ~ only slate shingle.
Beach at Deganwy (River Conwy Estuary) is 98% mud.
For sand on the beach you need to either go north toward Rhyl or south toward Anglesey.
Also it is currently raining and blowing a f*cking gale here.
Cinema and KFC adjacent to Llandudno Juction Station are open though.

But apart from that  ~ "Have a nice day y'all"

I may have to reconsider this plan.

I remarked to them the other day that they talked like "an old married couple".

He hid behind me and she hid behind her mother (who is the CBFT)

Weather update:
Rhyl and surrounding area. Seems that was a "squall" blown in off the sea. Currently not raining, overcast skies, wind has dropped to a strongish breeze. When I got the milk in from the back step a minute or two ago it was chilly (but I am only in dressing gown.)

Northerners would have their shirts off by now I 'spect.

Oh dear! Was/is that one of those garden trampolines or a properly supervised sports centre type?
