Did 150 miles, went to a small village called Glyncorrwg in the valleys, not far from port talbot, very strange place...i reckon they eat their babies but i kept quiet about that to the mother in law as it's where she's from.
I grew up in a purpose built council estate in a new town, a shit hole, but to be expected, but there was something quite saddening about seeing this little old mining village, almost untouched & peaceful & the old miners houses.....& then scabby 80's flats with steel shuttered windows....i mean if your on the dole & up to no good then at least aspire to live somewhere with a bookies....or good broadband signal for the xbox....or mobile signal for your drug deals...or some shops to hang around outside....1 spar shop...which closed at 12
.
I walked passed a house, the whole village was deadly quiet...then this guy from inside starts vomiting his guts up & the window is open & it is echoing around the enclosed streets.....it was just really surreal!
Anyway my bike didnt get nicked & i focced off outta there, another place seen on the bike but nowhere near as good as the A44 over mid wales so i'll scope that out tomorrow.
Noggyfighter performed well at all times.
