Now I know why you have it all to yourself lol - found this on the news -

Two "irate and aggressive" bulls have been shot dead by police marksmen after going on the rampage in a popular coastal town.
The animals broke free from their container at around 10am on Wednesday and run amok in the Castle Hill area of Tenby, West Wales - tossing one man into the air and leaving another hanging over rocks after he jumped over a wall to avoid being charged.
Dyfed-Powys Police had to cordon off the area to execute the bulls after one broke through a makeshift steel barrier erected in a bid to contain them.
The animals had just been transported by boat from nearby Caldey Island when the drama unfolded.

Paul Edmundson, a 25-year-old local barman who also works as a part-time Caldey Island boat crewman, was fortunate to escape with minor cuts and a "bruised bottom" after being tossed into a hedge by one of the bulls.
"We tried to cut off the route of escape for the bulls when one came through a hedge and charged straight towards us," said Mr Edmundson.
"It just smashed the barrier out of the way and picked its target, which was me. I was trying to climb up a bank and as I did the bull dropped its head to gore me. I thought 'I'm not being hit by one of those horns' so I actually sat down between the horns. It flipped me into the air and into a hedge."
A spokeswoman for Dyfed-Powys Police said: "There were members of the public in the area - and the bulls were very irate and aggressive.
"A vet was called to the scene, and attended soon after. They were contained within temporary fencing at approximately 11am in a footpath between the old and new Lifeboat station, but escaped out of that containment approximately half an hour later.
"All possible options to deal with the animals were considered in consultation with the vet - but considering the immediate danger they posed to the public, armed officers had to destroy them. The area was made safe and re-opened at around 1pm."

Hi all, I love the Tenby / Saundersfoot area, my Dad's cousin who I have visited in Llanelli last year and in 2006, took us around that part of the coast and it was beautiful.

I could quite happily spend a long time in that part of Wales (the only part I have visited ) as I felt so at home there.

Won't be visiting this year sadly due to various reasons, but hopefully next year again. When I get something arranged I will let you know. Last year I arranged a meet in Llanelli which was well attended and enjoyed by all so would do that again and also make sure I got in touch with you Lynne so I could maybe meet you if you couldn't get to Llanelli.

Tina, why don't you try and set up a meet too, it's such fun!

I do keep to just a few peeps - but then it gets too much keeping track of all my postings lol, but will if I feel it necessary to post on most threads depending on what subject is being discussed.

I just nudge my way in and make comment, if nobody wants to acknowledge or add to it I have no worries.
