Its Aberdyfi, or to give it its English name Aberdovey, meaning mouth of the Dovey (river).
Will try and post some pictures as it is a special place to me. Four mile up the coast is Towyn, home of the Talyllyn Railway which was used in several of the Thomas The Tank Engine books. Worth looking up on Google if you have any interest in steam trains.

My family moved to England, Marlow on Thames, another beautiful place and as I was only 12 years I thought it best to go with them. I still had the river Thames to play in, on and beside so it was not so bad. Plus the chance to go o a really good Grammer school

Should have used run flat tyres
At times I get homesick but you only remember the good things, once you remember the rain and the cold and some other things I won't mention then the feeling goes away. btw We used to holiday at Colwyn Bay.
Aberdyfi has very mild weather. athough they have quite a bit of rain its what they Irish call soft days, light fine rain which does not really bother you.

The old pensioner was talking about his active lifein Aberfydi. "If it is a fine day, I go for a walk in the park. If it is raining, I go to the cinema. Seen an awful lot of films.
A local raffle had two prizes 2nd was a week in Aberfydi and first prize was a post card of Aberfydi
Last raffle here had a first prize of a week in New Zealand. Second prize was two weeks in New Zealand.!
