    Lived at St Brides, just at the rise up the hill before Brawdy, in 1987-88. Long winters but some great memories too. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💙

    I've also taken a wrong turn or two in Haverfordwest - road markings are hard to see in slow moving traffic. Have used this route many times to set up tent at Newgale (6:59), IMHO the best camping site in Wales. RIP Sands Cafe (7:20) demolished 2+ years ago and still mired in a stalled rebuild when I was last there in July this year (2021). It was a great place to have breakfast, by its panoramic windows with a booklet of delightful poems about Haverfordwest always at hand. I miss it lots and really hope it re-emerges with its character unchanged.

    You edited out Solva!!! An incredibly pretty harbour village. I see you met the locals in their cars that can only do 40mph max, constantly flashing brake lights, I live in Solva and they drive us up the wall!!!

    Let's hope the Police don't see this. Some 80mph+ speeding when you slow the video down to normal speed.

    John Munday Hi, I can assure you that in this particular video I was NOT speeding. Top speed was 60 mph and I only reached it for a few seconds.

    Thanks for uploading this, but the speeded up footage and editing out Solva ruined it for me. People will watch videos like this in real time, there are plenty of driving videos an hour long on YT.

    You can go to your settings and slow the video to 25% speed. You might like that.
