Sunday - Folly Farm
Monday - Dinasaur Park
Tuesday - Up the Coast on the beeches....Broad Haven, Dale??....and back to Tenby Beach...this was the best day weatherwise :)
Wednesday - Rain....Swimming and softplay at Milford Haven...it was Phoenix Bowl so had lunch and Play there...
Thursday - Up to Cardigan for the steam train ride, back down to Pembroke Castle....I thought I was going to die climbing all the steps to get to the top!!
Friday - Car broke down, so all day in Tenby, luckily the weather was nice, so we went on to the South Beach and then walked to the North, also had a look round the shops etc...
Yes I liked Tenby....best bits for me was Folly Farm as the kids absolutely loved that, and I enjoyed driving to the coast, some of the scenery was beautiful :)
Sounds like you did OK.....but would you go back again? I think 2 weeks would be more to your liking....apart from the cost of course....that's why we can only go for one week next month :( There are lots more places over there that I know you would just love :D
Yes I would go back again.....the problem is finding things to do with the kids being the ages they are....as things like Oakwood and Heatherton was just too old for them......there are quite a few farm type places but we didn't fancy doing that every day... The week cost enough, cant fault the cottage though....it was lovely.....I am not sure of my plans next year...if anything!!...but I would like to think i would visit it again :)
Good! I'd be gutted if you said you didn't like it......would have felt like it was my fault for recommending it. When the weather is nice.....there's nowhere in the UK quite like it. You have over 200 miles of coast to chose from....within 30 miles if you find a place to stay near Haverfordwest B)
Aaww dont worry about that, it was me who made the decision to go in the end......the weather could of been better, but also could of been a damn sight worse...I think we were lucky considering the rest of the UK
The kids were gutted to come back home so I did something right eh :)

There is a search box over on the left......type the person's name in there :D
You can add me too if you like ;) ......you don't have to ask :D ....but I'll understand if you don't :(
So what was the problem with the car.....Overworked??? :lol: ;)
Do I need people fulls name?....and then what do I do add them and they decide whether to accept or not?? Is any of it private or can everyone read what you are up to!! A complete nightmare...........the friday before we left we had the air con fixed ( I couldn't use the voucher Libby gave me as it wasn't just a case of it being re-gassed), there was a problem with the switches....so we had that fixed and a service done on the A.C that cost £140.00, then on friday the battery light came on and didn't go off, so we took it to one garage who said it was the alternator, but they couldn't do it as we had air con and he didn't have the facility to re gas it, so went to another garage (opposite Somerfield in Tenby), they said they could do it around 2pm, got back there at 6.30pm and it still wasn't fixed, they told us the new alternator they put in was faulty...so they kept the car overnight and did it saturday morning....when we went to go home M switched the engine on to find the battery light still on, the mechanic said it was because the battery had had some life sucked out of it and to rev the engine and the light will go off but to check it when we came back to Bristol....then we stopped at services and when we went to come home the light didnt go off...decided to chance it and was on the motorway for 2 mins when the temp gage went ot maximum banghead banghead ...so I called breakdown who towed us home, but get this....just my luck the switch for the electric windown broke in the truck so we had to stop at Services and wait for another truck to tow us home :lol: :lol: ....50mins on the motorway hard shoulder with 2 kids and rain!!! Are you asleep now or gone!!
You need to use the name they have registered with.....usually their full name.
You can set your account to Friend's Only...then no one can read anything unless you become 'friends'......(friends can invite you and vice versa) B)
There are quite a few of us VBM'ers on there :)

I think I could when it was clear, I wanted to visit Caldey Island but again wasn't sure the kids would like it....and as Josh is a little 'special' I didn't want to risk the boat ride
