Today....
Have been wasting about 4 hours so that my son Ben can get an xbox live account. This so he can download the remaining Minecraft episodes from the story mode game. He has been driving me MAD with all the signing in, credit card confirmations, hours of online research etc. I really cant stand microsoft and their poison.

Picked  him up from his mothers around 10.30 as per usual. After shopping we had a nice walk
around the walls of Conwy castle. The views are spectacular, across the town itself, and over the Conwy river estuary, to the old castle ruins on the Vadre. The sun had made an appearance, boats facing up stream now, as the full tide was on the ebb, swinging their bows to the current.



The walls encircle the old town, and on the east side, it looks down onto a set of warden controlled flats, and the catholic church. This is where the service was for my old friend Linda, who, sadly, passed away last year. Such a fiesty and intelligent lady, who, in the war, operated secret code breaking computers at Bletchley Park.
Afterwards I had a very nice frappe, the lad had a  Chocolate milkshake in the cafe near the quay. Made sure to speak a bit of welsh, didnt want to the owner to think we were just another tourist with their broad ekky thump accents and no manners.
He did speak a bit of Cymraeg back to us, even though I think he was Turkish. Da Iawn!

Later, we smashed up the hard drives of two old PC's, he enjoyed that!
