The story behind this image

If you're looking for olde worlde charm then the old fishing villages that dot the coastline of Anglesey, just off the North Wales coast, are hard to beat, especially on one of those rare sunny days.

This is Moelfre, on the east coast of the island, and what you can see here is the road leading up from the harbour towards the RLNI lifeboat station just around the headland.

The reason I took this particular photo was to show off the idiosyncratic wool shop at the end of the street.

It's vivid colour and general quirkiness were just too good a visual treat to pass by.

Funny that it's always shut when we visit, much to my wife Liz's disappointment.
