welsh1 Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Chuffed to bits sold some pic on Thursday to the Daily mail and they said they would use them in Saturdays paper,I was expecting a small bit buried away as a filler and delighted when I got most of page 3. Wife is telling everyone I am on page 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Visiting the very spot next month. Great photos - brought back a few memories - about 1985 when we were last there - apart from a quick trip to pick up a pup - when we never actually got into Tenby itself.

welsh1 Posted February 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 it states © Wales News. Is that you? The site keeps changing it's layout, the main pic of the boy on the rock with fireman is mine, there was two others on there but at the moment they have gone, all the other pics are taken from someones video camera,so their quality is only good for online.these are marked with the wales copyright who are a news agency in wales, they wanted my pics but offered next to nothing, The pics in the paper are all mine.

keg Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Indeed, he might be a good climber but 1 sec? Great pics thought! Well done Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big bad lindz Posted February 18, 2017 Report Share Posted February 18, 2017 Great pictures, Although I can see why some people will be angry with the parents I don't think they should be blamed, we all did some stupid things when we were younger and some still do, had the young lad managed back down by himself would we know that. I am sure he learnt a lesson and who knows he may go on to be a great British explorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iano Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Well done! I remember when doing my day skipper ticket that you should always call the coast guard; they don't have much training budget so a call out means they get to deploy and practice using their toys. Apparently the heli guys really love getting a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulnix Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Well done, did wonder who the lad was though in a different story when I looked at bottom of the online page and is a video of a " horrific beating of a 7yr old " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet that there kids who climb that rock every year and don't get into trouble its maybe just unfortunate that he froze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
