Being a bank holiday, and thus a day on which - by definition - no news occurs, the mind turns to thoughts of…just about anything, really. Like why Einstein's brain was smaller than average, or how hard it is to recreate a trough-led Tsunami in a laboratory, why hot water freezes faster than cold or why the WAG makes it so hard to find a set of plans for a new road that's being built just North of Llanwrst, the first warning of which was a sign blandly informing us all that "work starts here for 48 weeks on 25th April", which will bring cheer to the hearts of all those who seek to make a living out of the tourist market in Llanrwst and Betws.
Being a coastal community (as, in a sense, the entire UK is) we're much preoccupied with thoughts of water, Piers, solitons and visitors, but we do sometimes forget that tourists are a vital component of the fiscal circle of life, particularly when they're driving a twenty year old car at 30 mph in the middle of the A470.
But hey! The weather's slated to stop raining - eventually - and it might even become a tad warmer. And then we'll all be able to moan about heat waves, flies, global warming and the state of the roads. Happy Holidays,,,
