Is there still 1 from Stranraer ?

No but one just up the way that do Stena and P&O
Yes but price is similar to Holyhead and it's over twice the distance from me so lots more fuel.
Liverpool is half an hour from me
Holyhead about an hour
Stranraer about 4 hours
Edit.. Cairnryan not Stranraer now, they moved the port a few miles

Holyhead full of freight lorries but good breakfast.
Liverpool crossing can be rough.
pembroke… even tougher for crossing & truckers

How can Liverpool be rougher than Holyhead, it's the same bit of sea

No… Liverpool is on the Mersey sea then changes to the Irish Sea near IrelandHow can Liverpool be rougher than Holyhead, it's the same bit of sea
The ladybird book for geography says so
My I spy book of ferries says the sea along the north coast of Wales is unpredictable.
Had to look unpredictable up on google and it comes up with Land Rover
... that with some 12mm plywood and some foam pipe-lagging I have made a draught excluder for the chimney in my unused bedroom fireplace.
Not only has it stopped the draught completely, I can no longer hear the "street-sounds" coming back down the chimney.
My plan is to open it 1 day a month to keep the chimney aired/dry; but the rest of the time it can stay closed and all the expensive heat will not be just making its way out of the house through the chimney.
It is big enough as a panel to fit a small adjustable hit & miss vent should I choose to do so.

Lucky man. I've just got front tyres done and booked in for next week. Now off to take pix of my feet so I can afford some ciderThat’s the one! Now in Benderloch in a hot tub
When the grandchildren were little I used to sometimes eat a Bonio in front of them. Always good for a laugh!
(They don't taste of much!)
I'm wondering if all this selling off of stuff is to fund your new garage build, in which case it's more ironic than i ever imagined!!!
