Visiting my family for Christmas until the 3 Jan in Dyfed area of S.Wales, would be interested in visiting any tuning shops, race activities, or general automotive events. Also looking for any Datsun enthusiast's in the area that might help me find a set of tail light lenses, drivers left door mirror, or parking light switch for a 240Z that I have back home.

Anyone that can give some suggestions would be appreciated, by just answering back on here.

I once stumbled across the world bog snorkelling championships on a trip to Wales, which was very entertaining, but is a summer event I believe. The only advice I can offer is to forget asking for directions, without a lung infection you'll never produce enough phlegm to pronounce anywhere.

Don't touch their sheep, they don't like that...

And don't even think about shagging one.

Well, not if they can see you, that is...

Great day out yesterday, starting at the Cross Hands "Cars & Breakfast" viewing some interesting cars, great group of people, and nice weather. Then went off to Pembrey to view the "West Wales Rally Spares JAFFA STAGES".
Hopefully will be making it out Skidz's carting track just out of Swansea in next couple of days.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Would post some pictures but have windows 8 just don't have the patience to try and figure out how to resize the pictures.
