"Dach chi'n mynd cerddediad?", asked the lad we met in Wepre Park. Truly we were in Wales and, unlike Henry II who was ambushed here, our reception was friendly. "Are you going walking?" he continued enthusiastically, "It's great round here, specially Ewloe Castle". What a delightful welcome to a foreign country!
