bah, now I will have to put the servants on the gates to kill the indfidels trying to get a peek!

I would think Welshlady took that first picture from of the from the garden of one of my favourite restaurants on the Mumbles Head.

Cyfarthfa Castle (not actually a castle) is actually a secondary school and museum now. (And I take a shortcut through the grounds to walk to my Grandmother's house, as I will be in about an hour). It's a really nice walk.

If you look at the picture looking from the Castle to the viaduct, you can actually see my house (or the garden anyway) (Or if I am keeping up the pretence, the servants quarters :P)


Dunno if you can see the two cannon (start at the centre - and they are the blak things in between the second and third windows), but I spent many an afternoon sitting on the backs of one of those, pretending I was shooting people on the boating lake :D
Went to the JobCentre today, and the Army were there going "Be the Best" ... now T-Mobile just told me I didn't have the qualifications to sell phones, Microsoft said I didn't have the qualifications to answer the phones, and the Army want to let me loose with a machine gun?

Although, it was called the third biggest shithole in the United Kingdom this week ... (and living here, I know that's true)

If that's the "third biggest shithole" are they giving away property cheap? I'd move there! :)

It costs about $14 million in today's money, (but our Borough council are so corrupt, just slip them all a tenner and it's yours.)

Went there on a school trip many years ago I think. Merthyr was the centre of the world in the industrial revolution with it being at the front of steel making. Also went to Dan-yr-Ogof caves that day.

University in the foreground ... follow that arc around the bay, and right where the picture is cut off, is that big monkey thing!
