UHOH……………………you’re just gonna HATE this everybody but yet again nobody guessed the Teaser this week! That’s right and I can’t believe it……………….I was sure someone in the UK would have traveled here and would guess it and that even some folks (and I know several here in the US) would have visited this beautiful region of the world……………well, here goes – these are the photos my Guest Teaser sent to me:
Thanks to my pal and buddy Austin and his Mom Miss Carolyn whose blog Catachresis you can visit HERE – for sending me these photos. You guys get my Guest Teaser Thank You Badge!!
So where is this? You’re gonna LOVE the name of the town where it’s located in Wales……………..it’s a REAL PIP!!!!! Here’s the information Miss Carolyn sent to me to share with you.
Plas Newydd is a property now owned by the National Trust and is set on the shores of the Menai Strait amidst beautiful scenery. It is located in the town with the longest name in Wales – Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
It has been the home of the Marquesses of Anglesey since the 19th century, but the house originated in the 14th Century. It was redesigned by James Wyatt in the 18th century. Again in the 1930s the interior was restyled and is famous for its Rex Whistler association containing his exquisite romantic mural and the largest exhibition of his works.
A military museum contains relics from the First Marquess of Anglesey (including his prosthetic leg). The Marquess commanded the cavalry at the Battle of Waterloo.
From the house and grounds you can see across the Menai Strait to the mountains of Snowdonia.
Isn’t it GORGEOUS???? I think so. My Mom and Dad have never visited Wales…………now they want to!!! Anyway, normally as you know I’d be all full of myself bragging that I fooled everyone but I’m starting to get a complex over this so I’m NOT crowing about winning today – – – I’m hoping that next week SOMEBODY GETS IT!!!!!
Meanwhile, you ALL get THE BIG GREENIE!
Thanks for playing along on Tuesday Teaser………………I’ve noticed since nobody’s been guessing it right I’m having less traffic on Tuesdays for my Teaser…..sniff sniff….don’t give up everybody – YOUR TURN WILL COME I JUST KNOW IT!!!!!!!

Hehehe! We were kind of sad too that no one got it!! It is so beautiful and just a couple of miles down the road from where we live! Oh and the locals call that town either Llanfairpwll or LlanfairPG because otherwise we would never get anything done if we had to say “I’m just nipping down to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch for some bananas” MOL.
