Absolutely correct, Bri!  What kept you?  Reputedly brought to Cadiz by Chris Columbus the intrepid explorer.

Didn't anyone notice that I wasn't here?   You're right on all counts.   I did have my ipad with me and kept a watching brief on the Forum to make sure everyone was behaving themselves.   ;)

Where in Wales will you find this row of beach huts?

Well done Yorkie, correct.
They were moving them down from the car park to the beach when I was there in April.

In which case, Google has become the ruination of quizzes.  &shake&

But unless you have been to the location, Google is your only chance.  :)

                Yes, you are in the right area, Llechwedd. If you keep walking East after the flats you will come to the start of the path in the public car park which is just below Morrisons Supermarket. It runs along the old B.R. track past Ferodo, fork 2nd left at the roundabout which leads onto the Y Felinheli bypass and then downhill past "Crossings Cottage" down to the waterfront past the boatyards in Y Felinheli, where there is an excellent pub called Y Garddfon, which serves coffee as well as beer/bar meals. It is approx.4.5 miles long and takes just over an hour or so.
        It is much quieter than the Lon Eifion path which starts just past the Welsh Highland Railway station at the other end of Caernarfon and runs in a westerly direction for 12.5 miles up to Bryncir. This one is great on a bike as it has a very slight uphill gradient most of the way (not too steep as it used to be a railway track too) on the outward leg but very relaxing on the return leg!
I must give that one a try. When I visited Ferodo, I walked back into Caernarfon but could have carried on to Felinheli, thinking about it.

Haven't found it yet but the date is MMXII or 2012 in English, so it ain't very old!   ;)
