Amser Cymraeg, Walmart style

Another example of Welsh Time that has been annoying me for sometime.
The sign below is in Llangefni, the centre of this island, the administrative centre too, with officials at the council offices and all sorts. I can't say that I like Llangefni much, in fact I avoid the town as much as possible, but when I moved here in June 2005, I was hoping for a decent supermarket to open in the Autumn when this sign was erected.
I had not thought about Welsh time then... Amser Cymraeg struck again. Just look at the Welsh sign... at the year..
I have even asked for a translation of the words and I am told that they do say very much the same...
Except for one detail


The year


I don't understand, but it has been good to know that even Walmart is not immune to Amser Cymraeg.

a few pix, Beaumaris again

Hi everyone, just a short blog to let you know I am OK. Although I am not online so much, nothing is wrong with the computer, the connection, life... its cos I have been going out more ;)
Anyway, on my way home the other morning, I took a few pix..


These 3 pictures are all of Beaumaris, or the view from it across the Menai Straits.

I took this picture a few days earlier... This is along a road between Beaumaris and Pentraeth.

Photohog Dave in Louisiana

A friend from my early chat days in Excite VP has been touring the Katrina torn areas of USA and has put some pictures on his own site. I asked if I could show this one and he agreed.

Platypus survives Katrina!

Thanks Dave.

Dave has been exploring Highway 90, a coastal route. But his pictures are an real insight as to what has happened and still needs to be sorted over 5 months after this devastation.
