I've been watching the Series of
Weather Man Walking , Derek Brockway the Weather man
Did the the Coastal Path walk
In North Wales .
Two of the Walks I found very Interesting
As I've Walked many Parts of North Wales.
The Weatherman Walked from Deganwy to the West Shore ,Llandduno and Great Orme
He Explained about the History and Geography of the Area .
And Told you About Why So many Tourists are attracted there .
As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

I did The Great Orme Circular walk The Opposite way, October 2018 When I Walked the North Wales Coastal path .
Started at the Pier .
Headed up the Inclined path past
Happy Valley .
Beautiful Park Overlooking the Long Promenade of Llandudno as far as the Little Orme .
Passed some Rock Climbers attempting to climb up some precarious Overhanging rocks .
Also Seen The Orme Goats crossing narrow ledges of rocks with sheer drops down to sea.
Then after couple of miles came upon the
Aptly named cafe "Rest and Be Thankful "

All as a hidden secret Installation .

Then descended down To The West Shore parade ,with little park and model boat lake .
And lovely sandy beach .
With great views towards Degnwy and the Costal path by the sand dunes .
There I headed Back North up the long avenue to Llandudno .
A very Enjoyable walk around 10k

On BBC1 Wales, and all the walks are in Wales. It’s not on BBC Scotland; our equivalent walking programs aren’t shown south of the border. It’s available on iPlayer, of course, and might be good for getting ideas of where to bring the Motorhome. Thanks for posting.
Most of The Episodes I have watched .
Are all in The North Wales area .
As I lived there for some years
I enjoy very much
When it's a Walk I have Done
Or I'm familiar with .
Also haveing spent many Holidays over the Last fifty years In North Wales.
It gives me Great Happiness and Joy of a place I love very much .
Derek Brockway The Weatherman is a lovely presenter and describes The walks
Indept and gives a good Insite of the History and Geography .
In a Cheerful and Informative manner Also .
All In All Its Worth Watching
