Editors letter

elcome to the January and February edition of The West Essex Directory, your local community magazine and business Directory.

So, yet another year has begun. Being a particularly jaded, cynical and unpleasant person, it gives me great pleasure to make no resolutions each New Year and to watch my friends and colleagues fail miserably in theirs. I did make one resolution this year, and that was to continue with the yearly Round Robin e-mail that I send to everybody in my address book. They love it. They eagerly await my news – how the twins are growing.

Little Trevor is a marvel on the clarinet, and Trevorina has taken up Latin dancing, and still they are only three. I know people love these. I get hilarious tongue-in-cheek replies, like “Please stop pestering us with these e-mails!” and “We’re simply not interested in your pet dog’s digestion!” How my friends all make me laugh!

On a personal note, it’s interesting to see the tone

Book Review

of my communications decline. Where once were hopes of holidays and adventure, the e-mail now is more of a health bulletin, listing the excruciating minutiae of my anatomy’s decline, moans, groans, aching bones, a list of possible operations, some vague word of hope for the future, and all leading to a climactic platitude about the weather.

Here’s to 2014 then. Hope the weather’s nice.

Cardigan Bay or Plwmp, Pastels and Poets.

F

irst they made us bungee jump into a barrel of lard. Then we had to burrow through a tunnel of rats. But the eating of kangaroo parts was the last straw. Yup. Cornwall has really gone downhill. So we decided that the next holiday would be of an altogether gentler tempo, staid, relaxing – and what could be more staid and relaxing than a good cardigan. We would go to the place whence cardigans got their cardigan name – yes, obviously, of course, that’s right – Plwmp. My first holiday in a town with no pubs, hotels or vowels. Other resorts are available. We just, well, you know, plumped for this one.

Anyhow – it turns out that this Plwmp, however you pronounce it, is a village on the Cardigan coast and the Cardigan coast is the less well known partner to the Pembrokeshire coast – the Beardsley, if you will, to Lineker, the Zeppo to Groucho, the other blokes in the original Oasis to the famous ones.

If Pembroke brings to your mind images of sandy coves and clifftop paths, of pastel villages in wooded bays and harbour walls above the waves, you can get all of that stuff along the Cardigan coast, but without the lines of ramblers obscuring the view.

The Cardigan coast path is about 60 miles long, and runs from the town of Cardigan at its southern tip to Ynyslas, just beyond Aberystwyth.

TWED_PUB_JANFEB2014 page 8

Llangrannog

The short section from Aberporth to Tresaith is along an all-weather, surfaced cliff-top path with spectacular views. The southern half of this section is wheelchair friendly.

Further along, pretty Llangrannog, once a small port, sits in a sheltered cove, peeping out between rocks at the sea like a nosey neighbour through the chintz curtains. The village not only has pubs but has three vowels to boast of.

To the north again, New Quay sits on a sloping hillside, the houses of pink and lime green and turquoise forming a pastel mosaic in the evening light. A harbour wall (of course) curves cautiously out into the sea, like a toddler dipping its toes, and it is from here that you get to watch for dolphins.

They visit regularly and nose between the moored fishing boats, like curious tourists. Boats, meanwhile, take the human visitors out to sea for a closer glimpse, but you can stand on the harbour wall and generally see a dolphin or two. New Quay was partially the inspiration for Llareggub in Dylan Thomas’s Under Milk Wood, and a trail through the town visits spots connected with the poet’s stay.

Aberaeron (which makes up for Plwmp’s shortcomings by practically exploding with vowels) was another harbour and shipbuilding town, its architecture also washed in pastel shades as dignified houses gaze rather sternly down on the harbour, remembering perhaps a grander past and a little

indignant at the leisure craft moored there now.

Green rolling hills rise in the background.

Near the northern tip of the coastal path, Aberystwyth (which arguably has 4 vowels although I can only see a couple) is the administrative centre of the area. The arrival of the railway in 1864 brought with it a boom in tourism and grand Victorian hotels and houses line the curving promenade.

At one end is a castle, while, at the northern end, Constitution Hill rises to give views out to sea and across the hills inland. A funicular, which once was the longest in the British Isles, gives easy access to the top where there is a camera obscura. (Turns out this is just a big old building – I was disappointed as I’d been hoping to find a really obscure Nikon.)

The last stretch of the coastal path heads off from here to its final destination at Ynyslas, and I have to confess I’ve never been there, so I can’t possibly comment. Thanks to the internet, however, I can inform you that there are sand dunes and a Nature Reserve. Research just ain’t what it used to be.

That’s Cardigan well and truly covered. Next year, we’re going somewhere that doesn’t make my spell-check explode. Maybe Sri Lanka.
