Geoff:
I know the Cardiff area well; we have a close friend who lives in 
Penarth and we try to go over for long weekends a few times a 
year. I like the coast from, say, from Llanwit Major through 
Atlantic College and on to Nash Point and Porthcawl. I don't know 
the Gower quite as well although I have an old friend who lives in 
Newton and I visited Three Cliffs Bay last year.

I currently live in Porlock, almost opposite to Bridgend across the 
Bristol Channel but lived for very many years in Wandsworth in 
South London - about 3 miles from where Daniel Radcliffe still lives. 

I grew up in Lancashire in the North-west but my parents moved 
south when I was nine.

Actually, if I lean slightly to the right as I sit here typing, I can see 
Porthcawl, hazy sunshine today.
