The Village Show

Hello peeps! Hey boys daddy’s back! I’ve been to visit my parents, which means that due to a lack of PC in Welsh Wales I have left you all alone for the last few days. It was great weather up there; hot sunshine and no breeze – typical drinking weather (I did manage to take some photos as well though!) It was the weekend of the annual village show, which I thoroughly enjoyed, meeting some old and new friends!!!
I’ve never put pictures on blogs before, so be warned that the captions may not make any sense to the picture. I’m only a small child remember!!
This first installement of pics is from the village show. Hope you enjoy!
Let’s start with a nice bunch of flowers for all you flowery gardners – not that I have a clue what they’re meant to be!
This particular flower (whatever it is) won the top prize, as the gardener kept on telling me, time after time, thinking I was from the Press!!
You’d get about two of these in a decent wheelbarrow!
Do you think this display may have won a prize??
AAAARRRRGGGHHHH – The Coneheads have arrived on Planet Earth again!!
The main floral display in the village hall.
Anybody know what this lot is??
“’Ere Arfur! Do ya fancy that horny little mare over there?”
“I do hope the judge doesn’t think my bum’s too big, Edna!”
And so, at the end of a long day in the show we retire to the drinking hole for a few beers…………
……….and some friends old and new! I was praying that the bench seat over there wouldn’t go off balance and fall over after I got up!!!!! Mind you, that woman sitting with that bloke had a nice pair of pins on her!!
Well, there we are! Those pics were of the village show. Obviously there were other things there, but it gives you a taste of what makes country life so interesting! Stand-by for the next installement, entitled ‘My Stomping Ground’!

Amusing blog, Merfyn with great pic's again...
15 Sep, 2009
Hi Merfyn glad your back and you had a great time, your pics are great. It looks as though you missed Indypendant as he was in the same show and went for a pint in the same watering hole, small world.
15 Sep, 2009
Great blog Merfyn...lovely sheeps' bums! Glad you enjoyed your visit...thought I recognised those onions Bob!
15 Sep, 2009
Indy's blog on the show even has some of the same photo's....how weird!
15 Sep, 2009
Blimey Merfyn how did we miss each other mate PG just left me a message about this blog and its uncanny mate, I checked out the "My stompin ground" one but just thought you were in the general area didn't notice this one under it!!!
AND you were in the cross foxes , was that SWIWOLS pins you were talking about!!!!!
15 Sep, 2009
Well Indy, I'm only 5'7" so its quite possible that we'd miss each other - Trawsfynydd is such a large place after all!!! Plus I was wearing a brown leather Australian hat to keep the sun off my bonce. Oh, and I've got a short beard and a moustache now as well (not in my profile pic).
16 Sep, 2009
Gee wizz Indy! Just had a thought.....I talked to that woman with legs, and her husband! Was that you and SWIWOLS??? I think we briefly talked about veggies, and that's my gear (utility vest, camera, and hat) on the ground by the flower pot next to SWIWOLS. How did that happen? A shiver's just shot up my spine now!
16 Sep, 2009
Damn Merf thats you sitting next to us in the pub garden we spoke do you remember and had a couple of jars together when Ger and his missus came old friends of yours and SWIWOLS sister!!!! I'd never have thought that was you from your picture here mate, and it was SWIWOLS pins you were ogling!!!! wait till I tell her you were right next to us, what a hoot!!!!
Unbelievable mate unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We'll have to get together when you next come up and have a laugh about this one!!! ROTFLMTO!!!!
16 Sep, 2009
Great idea Indy! Ummmmm........what does the code word in the end mean? So your missus and Ger's wife are two sisters then? How small is this world I ask myself? We'll have to plan better for next year - make sure you've got a driver!!!!!
16 Sep, 2009
Hell we'll stop at Gers place mate and get totalled in the foxes, he could do with a good outing too!
Rolling On The Floor Laughing My T*ts Off
16 Sep, 2009
Hahaha what a hoot you spoke to each other and you did'nt realise thats a cracker hehehe
16 Sep, 2009
This is very eerie......!
16 Sep, 2009
Only on planet GoY could such a momentous meeting take place and absolutely nobody realise. LMSO ! ! !
16 Sep, 2009
Soo, if thats SWIWOL who's "pins" have now been ogled by most of the male populus of the planet, does that make "that bloke" you Indy? The one with his face full of glass?
16 Sep, 2009
Yup thats me Ian!!! large as life and twice as ugly, I knew there was something shifty about that bloke in the hat, now I know he was eyeing up me missus, unbelievable and I bet he never expected his little comment on the net to come back and haunt him quite so quickly!! I'm wettin meself on thiis one mate ROTFLMSO!!!!!!
16 Sep, 2009
Blinkin Ink how weird lol, and you nearly missed Merfyn's Blog Indy! Well done PG for Connecting the 2 Blogs together..:))
16 Sep, 2009
Yes that was the weirdest part for me really as I try to keep up with all the blgs, I just didnt see that one at all or I would have spotted it straight away, its mad to think we were sat next to each other, we even bought each other a pint in the sun it was such a nice day!, if it had been raining we wouldnt have gone at all! and if we had certainly would have given the pub a miss and legged it for home!
16 Sep, 2009
OH alright!!!!
We've decided to come clean we arranged the meet and arranged to do two blogs just to wind you all up a bit and see who noticed the "co-incidence"top marks to BOB and Pansypotter who saw it in front of them!
Merf and I apologise for taking you for a little ride, so to speak, but a jokes a joke and this ones gone far enough!
Thanks Merf it was good meeting you there and we hope you'll visit again next time youre up! Hows your Jam mate !
16 Sep, 2009
As the co-culprit, may I also apologise for our little escapade. We did arrange to meet about a week before the show, and I know Indy's in-laws quite well, but hadn't seen them for a long time. However, it was good to meet up with all of them, and if you look closely at the photograph that Indy took of the pub's garden you will see me sitting on the bench to which I referred in my own blog, with the said hat - I just turned my face away from his missus for the sole purpose of the photo!
I do see we have two eagle-eyes in our midst, ergo Bob and Pansypotter, and many congratulations go to both of you for the swift spotting of our little game!
Here's begging for leniency and mercy.........Merf!
Jam not tasted yet Indy; maybe over the weekend!
16 Sep, 2009
LMAO, you pair of Charletons hahahaha..
PS, I Knew, puh :))))) ..
16 Sep, 2009
Hu I didn't :~((
16 Sep, 2009
No - nor did I! You bad, bad boys!!!!!! LOL.
Great that you met up, though. :-)))
16 Sep, 2009
........sorry mummy......!
16 Sep, 2009
LOL!!!!
16 Sep, 2009
You naughty boys...well that's not what I said to Hubby, having gone to great lengths to explain to him what was going on here! I would be flagged if I typed what I actually said!! What a hoot, you got us going.....BUT...it was me , Potty, who noticed! But I accept your congratulations anyway!!!
Glad you had a good time.....
16 Sep, 2009
Giggle snort....little boys never grow up weally, chuckle, bet Bscott'll send us to sharpen the pencils Merf !
16 Sep, 2009
Oh no Indy & Merfyn .oh no...for this little trick I think you both should get down on your hands 'n' needs & clean the mens' loos in that pub with a toothbrush! ;0)
16 Sep, 2009
If youd been in that pub youd know
a) it wouldnt take very long (its small)
b) it wouldnt need doing (theyre clean)
c)it would be cruel to the landlord (and therefore not on)
d) whats a toothbrush? (rinse gargle and swallow your whiskey properly and your teeth will remain in perfect condition)
and e) what makes you think that the pubs got a toothbrush anyway? ( its the cross foxes not the crossed toothbrushes)
16 Sep, 2009
Just cos you're going to Uni doesn't mean you need to be pedantic...even foxes use toothbrushes...!!??!!
16 Sep, 2009
Well said Fluff, put the upstart in his place! (Indy, shes talking about you) she's still right! a fox always carries its brush with it!
16 Sep, 2009
PMSL, ROFL. etc., etc., etc., Why ru guys not writing sit-Com scriptS for TV??? Mind you, don't watch the "Box" - and no need to, either - with this calibre!!!! Loved it!!! :-))
16 Sep, 2009
Time to take our bow I think Merf ! ready one two three...DUCK!!!!
16 Sep, 2009
Ladies & Gentlemen: thank you all for your considerate comments. BOOOOOOOOW (a long bow - a bit like Robin Hood's one). I'll try not to play anymore naughty childish tricks again..........but I'm still quite young, so who knows! Always watch your backs - the Merf & Indy (rather than Beadle) could be about!
What a great bunch of people you all are!
17 Sep, 2009
Go straight to the top of the bl@@dy class, sharpen the pencils and give out the milk....NOW!
And you can both stay in all week on detention and write out, 100 times 'I must not play silly bloggers'.
See me after class.
;-))))) Brill, the pair of you!

17 Sep, 2009
In PENCIL! None of this copy & paste slovenly work! You've been told before about whispering in class!
Ian....keep your spoon in your own basin, or else you'll be in at hometime, tidying the handiwork cupboard.
George....don't do that....
18 Sep, 2009
Please Miss: who's George? (said in a quiet nervous tone)
18 Sep, 2009
(Merf, I wouldn't bother mate, she's in a funny mood today. Shhhhhhhh)
18 Sep, 2009
Oi Merf yr names bein taken in vain over on Bscotts Imponderables blog.......
18 Sep, 2009
Ah, who, indeed, is George?
The wonderful old comedienne, Joyce Grenfell ( no longer with us, sadly ) used to do brill monologues and one of them was about a schoolteacher trying to control a class of infants.....George ( don't do that! ) was one of the kids. And we never found out quite what George was doing!
Careful, Digger...don't push your luck or you WILL stay in and clean out the handicrafts cupboard....
;-)))
