When I did a summer as a candystriper in a local hospital back in the summer of
'74, one patient sent down an order for "milquetoast"...the kitchen sent up a
plate of toast and a glass of cold milk....r

A pessimist sees the glass as half empty.
An optometrist asks whether you see the glass
more full like this?...or like this?

I was down there examining. It was surprisingly dry, considering.

PS The chef in Gales Wine Bar, Llangollen, is a tad too quick to reach
for the cream; not just his strange interpretation of 'creamed
potatoes', but Mrs C's blue cheese veggie tagliatelle was also swimming
in the stuff.
The breakfasts, however, were to Dai for.

Where was it? I had a pretty good meal, with some excellent beer in
Llangollen once. Mind you, having walked from the canal, to
Llantysilio, past Vale Crucis Abbey and up to Castell Dinas Bran, and
then all the way down again on a hot day, any beer would have tasted
excellent.

That's ambiguous. Are you wishing a plague on pickled herrings or

Some of my relatives on my father's side lived a bit north of there:
Cross Keys, Machen, Risca and thereabouts. He visited them at Christmas
1930/31. He wrote about them in some detail in his diary. Frustratingly
he used only first names, not surnames, so it would take some heavy-duty
genealogy to track down their descendants now.
One of my great grandfathers worked at the Black Vein Colliery.
http://www.welshcoalmines.co.uk/Gwent/BlackVein.htm
According to Dad's diary my great great great grandmother, Betsy Bright,
was the founder of the Wesleyan Church in Cross Keys.
I have never visited the area.

That all sounds v pleasant. I'd only ever driven through Llglln
before, and we didn't have time to stop or explore on this visit (shame
because despite the rest of the North West suffering apocalyptic
weather it was a lovely day), but made a note to go back for a weekend
soon.

Served with double cream, maple syrup, ketchup, and ice cream.
