I recently had a mini holiday in Pwllheli, I’d gone to visit some old friends who were holidaying there at the time (*EDIT: Oddly all the friends there can probably be found in The Pleasuredome rest home for the mentally unstable.) This Mini-Holiday led to several thoughts, events, Stories that will make it onto this Blog. This one is titled :-
“USA – Secret Summit”
I took a rather random and scenic route from my part of North Wales, to Pwllheli, for several reasons like :-
- Diversions/Road Closures
- A SatNav that refuse to talk to any Satellites
- The Avoidance of a road where I had a really nasty crash the last time I drove to Pwllheli to meet a Dome Spod.
- & The fact I was not really paying that much attention to where I was going since I knew the basic route.
So there I was happily driving along a small mountain road with little or no traffic when I noticed a large hall in the trees that was oddly flying several American flags. “Thants Odd” I thought. And I decided it was a lot odder when I got closer to the building to find a large car-park full of large cars, all sporting those American bonnet flags you see on embassy/presidential cars.
So what I would like to know from the American readers is. What secret official summit were you guys having in a hall hidden away up in the Welsh mountains?

Well it’s Saint Patrick’s day. Otherwise known as the international day of over-drinking with the Irish. So I shall raise a glass or two of Guinness today to help the Irish celebrate, after all they are cousins to the Welsh.
So Happy Saint Mick’s Day!!!!
And I shall share this recounting of a trip to Dublin that was originality posted on “National Nostalgia Week”
I was drinking at the bar in a pub with a friend when this young attractive girl came over and sat in my lap, apparently it was a quicker way to get to the crowded bar. So we started talking while she was getting server, well she started telling me about her collection of studded collars and such she had at home, and it started from there. During the conversation she pointed around the room and said “look at them all getting drunk on a Saturday night, its silly really as we have to confess it all in the morning, it makes you wonder why we do it!” to which I answer without thinking “I don’t know. I’m not a catholic!“. Have you ever seen a horror film when the people walk into a Inn on a moor and the whole place goes silent and stare at them? Its what happened, everything went silent, people stared, and I’m sure a group of men in the shadows started to put hands under jackets as if reaching for something. Remember the Catholic-Protestant issues they have over there. Luckily I had the sense of mind to follow it up with “I’m Welsh!” at which the noise returned to the pub, and several blokes came over to greet me and point out the Welsh hate the English as much as they do so I was all right. I then had several hours of drinks and anti-english jokes.

Today is the Winter Solstice, The shortest day of the year, and therefore the longest night. It’s also considered in many cultures & historical cultures to be the end of the year, and the start of the new. It all its a very spiritual time.
This year the special day has been made even more so with a full lunar eclipse. Ancient man (and woman) saw the lunar eclipse as a omen of great importance, so this omen appearing on the actual solstice is very Important. And could herald a special/interesting time ahead. The last time this happened was in 1638, So 2011 should be a special year!
So We here at the Ninja Temple wish you all a very happy *INSERT YOUR CELEBRATION NAME HERE*.
So can i ask everyone to throw a huge party and celebrate. For we need to make a big noise so that Amaterasu comes out of her cave and brings the sun back to the people, so the days can start getting longer, and I can start getting warm.
