    What did you think? I visited when I was a kid. I distinctly remember thinking "Great a long sign ..." The local fish and chip shop wasn't that good either. The welsh castles are interesting.

    The town wasn't very interesting apart from its name IMO...

    Wales itself is a beautiful country however. I've been to some of the castles, like Caernarfon, which looks great...

    I would definitely go back to Wales again.... (or Scotland too for that matter )

    How about that eh?

    Unfortunately I don't know exactly how to pronounce it....
    I can pronounce it but I couldn't type the pronunciation out...

    It means someting like, iirc, the church of mary by the white hazel pool near the fierce whirlpool with the church of tysilio by the red cave. Think I missed a bit though...

    Unastonishabelivable!

    How can there be a Runaway Bride True Story Movie???? How can anyone think that anyone would want to watch a movie about a couple of pretty average local yokels who were stupid enough getting caught having cold feet before a boring and uneventual union!!!?? The two are dullards in some dull town with dull families and just plain dull. I can't believe these people are going to get rich on the book and movie rights! Maybe there will be a Runaway Bride Doll next! And Runaway Bride flavored Slurpee at the local 7-11 GAWD.

    I think I'm going to walk down the hall and go the bathroom. That should be adventurous enough to make a True Story move about! Watch for me and my millions in Mari goes to the Bathroom. Coming to a TV Movie of the Week channel near you!

    GAWD.

    Well, I'm afraid it would only sell if you started for the bathroom, then changed your mind and decided to go to the kitchen and make a ham sandwich.

    Oh yes! I got the greatest hairdresser ever. He does hair okay, but at the salon it is always a show there. He is the center of all activity there, and I love just sitting there and listening to all the LIFE that goes on around him. All the stylists hang out around him, he is plugged into his cell phone all the time, and the goth manicurist is his own personal hag! Mari Goes to the Hairdresser would, for sure, be a huge hit!

    Mari empties the dishwasher.
    Mari accidentally bins kid instead of garbage.
    Mari goes to the mall.
    (Double DVD)
    Mari gets a blister.
    Mari has a headache tonight, again. Part III.

    Anyway, you could use part of the money to get Mr. Epee a new hat.
    A smaller one.

    Might have to be a ten-gallon hat - never know, cowgirl. Yeee-haw.

    Anyway, one of my favorite words has always been exacerbate. It just *works* for me, in so many situtations.
