He's like a kid in a sweetshop, lol.
Bet he doesn't get that excited when he sees his mrs wi' little/nowt on, as when he sees stuff like them trains.

Where there's muck, there's brass:
Episode 3
Guy visits Llandudno to help get this Queen of Victorian resorts up to scratch in time for the summer season.
... he joins a brass band to play his part in a special promenade concert - with mixed results...

Great episode.
Not so sure about the modern look the pier seemed to be getting,but better than total decline.
Ears pricked up at the mention of the wood ash, when doing maintenance on the old helter skelter chutes.
Ash is used because it doesn't splinter.

He starred in a TT documentary called (I think) Closer To The Edge. Well worth a watch, even if you are not into motorbike racing.
