In 2019 Duncan expressed surprise I’d never been to the Cresselly Arms in, er, Cresselly,

and on my mad dash this Summer to the GBG finish line I wondered if I’d bump into any “classics that I really ought to have done already”.
I guess the Mansel Arms in Porthyrhyd, Farmers in St Ouen, and Badger in Gullane fall into that box. And how did no-one except Duncan tell me about the Cresselley.
Obviously West Wales does isolated drinkers pubs better than anywhere in the world.

I only wish my photographic skills were as good as BRAPA’s these days.

But you’ll get the idea.


Honestly. Can I blame it on the sunshine that follows the righteous ? Or on Mrs RM for not buying me a new I-phone.
Whatever, it’s simplicity itself inside, and a great welcome from the young barman who told me that HUNDREDS of motorcyclists descend on this beauty spot at weekends.
I left him for the views outside though,


The birds chirped, the domestic banter continued unabated, a cool pint of Sharps Atlantic (NBSS 3.5+) slipped down in 10 minutes.
Change the Atlantic to Doom Bar and it’ll be in my Top 10.
I’m sure I expressed similar surprise! When I last went in 2015 there was a lot more ivy on the walls.

Wales does struggle for allowing a superb pub to be dismantled to put in a museum.

Only visited once, character personified. Almost as endearing as the Brains gay bar in the centre with the Dame Edna tribute night.
