We found a Dingle (a steep wooded valley)
on the island of Anglesey,
Nant y Pandy also called Nant y Dilyw
in Welsh means
Valley of the Deluge
its right by the town of
Llangefni
25 acres of wooded valley with boarded footpaths and walkways.
The river Cefni runs though the middle of it
Don't think they have had much rain,
because it looked more like a stream when we visited
Great place to visit on a hot day, plenly of shade
Time to leave, and get mom on a boat to see a puffin!!!
We saw this camper van,
mom doesn't have a thing about photographing them
but look at the name on it
Moms name is Janet Bell,
so if you see this van its not my moms lol!!!
LINK to her web site
Nice art work Janet ;)
OK mom get on the boat.
Shes sailing away to Puffin island
"Bye mom see you later"
see we didn't even stay to watch her go
see we didn't even stay to watch her go
"come on dad, I think its a pint in the pub"
"Good grief mom is that it, a puffin!!! can you zoom in on it"
"OK its a puffin"
"George, we have always come to visit at the wrong time of year!! over the last two weeks they have been leaving, but at least I have seen one, even if it was so far away!"
"As long as you are happy that's what counts, I'm very happy me and dad have spent the two hours you where gone in the pub, I call that a result"
Sorry no photos, well you wouldn't want to see me tipsy now would you, I've just got to sleep it off.
Before I go there some things I must tell you about.
Last Saturday mom dad and me went on a pub crawl/walk around Ironbridge with Boomer,
and his furiends, we had a great time.
Boomer now has his own web page and blog
I also made friends with Rolo the greyhound,
He has just started blogging.
I'm sure they would love you to welcome them to the world of Blogland
Boomer and Rolo are also on twitter,
they both said I should join, I have, its been a blast.
Mom being mom, wanted to follow the local news!!! how boring.
Until they asked for, what do you love about where you live, mom sent off a photo and a tweet that said
"The Countryside of Shropshire, Grinshill and Corbet Woods gets the 4 paws up from me"
You remember back in June I gave them the 4 paws up award.
Well blow me down, they used the photo on the evening news
Look out for me, on the link
If that doesn't work here's a photo
I got mail in the week, I entered
Thanks to you all that voted for me,
I came second, look what they sent
A beautiful home make picture and their favourite treats
Thanks Dex and Lou, its going up on the wall.
I'm nearly done, I know I'm rabbiting on,
Wyatt in the week put up a blog post
about the B day presents I had sent him,
no need but thanks Wyatt, he showed you the stamps I had sent.
You would have seen that I have had my very own stamp done,
They are proper stamps
that can be used on a first class letter in the U.K.

We like the pictures of your walk, you have the best dingles!
Well, we got to go get the rest of our pictures for the hunt. We still need a Mountain, which is funny cuz we can see Mt. Hood everyday, but the lighting is always wrong :(
Wyatt and Stanzie
Hi George, what a lovely set of photo's, as usual - our Momster is quite envious that your Mom went off on the boat trip, we think you got the best deal with your Dad at the pub :-) The stamps are just brilliant, we're going to check those out, fancy being on the TV too - wow you'll be asked for paw prints before long George with all this fame! So glad you liked the picture, we instructed HER on what to do of course! Have a great bank holiday weekend, Dex and Lou xxx

How cool to be on the television, we knew you had star quality :)
Amber and Annie will check out that walk in Llangefni, it's not too far from where we live on the north Wales coast.
We'll follow Boomer and Rolo's blogs, the more dogblogs the merrier for us:)
You pack so much into one blog post, we're so happy we found you.
C Ya Tuesday.
Take care xx
Beautiful pictures of the trip and wow what fame George. Great prize for the photo competition and then to be on a stamp and on TV. Enjoy the Bank Holiday - love from Magic x
Hi George, wow, you always find the best places to walk. Great idea to stay at the pub with your dad. You don't want to tire yourself out and dad probably needed a little refreshment too. We will visit your new friends on their blog. Take care. No worries, and love, Stella
You always have the bestest adventures, George! Our mom has only ever seen a stuffed puffin in a museum!
Those stamps are so cool!
Love ya lots
Maggie and Mitch
Love the photo of you looking at yourself on TV, it's priceless!
Also another wonderful trip through your lovely scenery. George, you really are lucky to go traveling around so much.
THERE IS SO MUCH HERE, I don't know where to begin, son.
YOU HAVE YOUR OWN STAMP???? I SEE THAT! THAT IS YOUR LIKENESS, not another Welsh Terrier, but YOU! And old man, LOOK AT YOU LOOKING at yourself on the telly! This blog post is again filled to the brim with goodies, fun, amazing things and furiends. Oh mi man, you really are a pal......I LOVE IT THAT YOU ARE PART OF THE ROYAL MAIL!
Big dog hugs....
Loved the walk on the dingle. You can't imagine how much I missvthe scent of underwood...
And a puffin?! WOW! Never saw one. Werethe other beats seals? You had a very interesting week!
I'm on my way to visit your friends's blog.
Have a nice week.
Hi George
Gail says a big "well done" to your Mum for getting that photo of the puffin. I am far more impressed by the fact that you have your very own stamps. They truly are First Class (although I am not sure that they would go down too well with certain ignorant folk in Scotland....)
Toodle pip!
Bertie.
Amazing and you are famous!!!!!
Your photos are always so beautiful! You go to the nicest and most fun places!!! Thanks for sharing!! Lots of love, Debbie & Holly
Ciao George,I'm Eubie a male wire fox from Italia.I love to read your blog and after saw your stamps I've immediately ordered 10 with my muso felice(happy dog face)on them!Thanks to give me this nice idea and also if I can't use them as regular stamps in Italia,they will be perfect to put them on presents or,better,to mark my personal stuff!Tanti saluti dal tuo amico Eubie
Hi George another great Saturday Step post...we are late checking in as we were dealing with that witch hurricane Irene yesterday. We had lots of wind, rain and dips in our power so we were on and off the 'puter. Anyway we wanted to say hi and wish you a good week
Hugs Madi and Mom
Congrats on your photo runner up George!
You were on TV too, wow!
And what were you staring at George, the big thing with 3 legs up in the air? A big rock or a big piece of wood?
Looks like a belly up elephant!
We're so sorry that we didn't visit you a long while, we miss you so much.
We're back, will follow you around!
Cheers!
That was a magical trip you took us on, George. With Puffins, no less! I hooked up with Bommerang on Twitter, but now I need to check out his blog. We're almost cousins, you know. Oh, yes, you told me that.....
George, you have had quite the week! Traveling, drinking, partying, walking, singing, winning....wow whee!
Congrats on your win!
Violet
You sure got a lot of stuff done. Congrats on coming out on TV! Seeing yourself on the screen, how cool is that?
Looks like you have a very beautiful spot of the earth over there:)
Mocha Barney, Ashley Pumpernickel and Winniechurchill
Oh my dog... George! Why do I begin? First, you got pissed in the pub with your dad. Then you appear on National telly and now your face is on the stamps!?! Wow! I also want to get pissed too! That's it, I'm going to the pub.
Love,
Homer
Beautiful post!! I never saw a puffin before, so thanks for showing the puffin photo!
Stewey
GEORGE MI MAN!!!!
Oh son, thank you for coming to visit mum's place; she is back at school and is gone all day now. AND I AM NOT AMUSED! If you have time, go to NOWHERE and see a rendition she did of how I feel about her leaving me to miself!!!!
AND....she is thinking of having a mailing stamp of either MOI or Tea Rat.....HMMMMPH! I think I should be the one sending the mail!!!
BIG FUR HUGS, Balzac
Wow, what a post and what a star you are George on TV. You're going to have to start charging for people to visit your blog ;-) You certainly give value for money with the amount of material here !
I have a few memories and recollections of this time last year when I went with two friends to The Farne Islands to see the seals and puffins. We were also told that the birds had already flown.
I know it might not be & it's no-where near where you were staying but that camper van looks awfully like it's parked on the front at Beaumaris. I wanted to photograph that building but there were too many cars on the grass and had to make do with a door & a window.
This post is jam-packed with fun and exciting stuff! It may take more than one reading. We have to say we are most excited about your star turn on the news! And having your very own stamp! WOW! We love seeing pics of wildlife and these were really cool. Not every day you see a puffin, eh? Or a bunch of, um, are they seals?, lying about. How cool is that?! What a great post!
The Road Dogs
Cool steps this week! Love all the photos.
George! Hi ya pal! Sorry I'm late, been kept real busy on one of my acting gigs. All done now though :)
That park you found is absolutely stunning! I wanted to jump in the river even if it was just a creek ;)
And your Mom went out on a boat to see puffins? How cool is that?!!! Such cute lil feathered guys :D Thanks for the zoom up :)
Waggin at ya,
Roo
