You're telling me!
Pembrokeshire has been absolutely rammed full this summer.
Traffic horrendous, car parks full, supermarket shelves empty (and that's down to the volume of people shopping).
Thankfully, it's quietened down a bit this last week.
When we used to do a lot of walking in the lakes, we had a tactic to miss the crowds, even on fairly popular routes.
Most of the guide books had the same walks in them, invariably doing the exact same route and direction.
We simply walked in the opposite direction to that described, and it really worked.
It was surprising how we'd come across a fair few people around about the same time and then once passed, we were on our own for the rest of the day.
Bit it was the commercialisation that really got me.
Even ten years ago, the cafes were charging an astonishing price for a basic sandwich with a bit of cucumber as salad.
A few days later, we moved on to the Forest of Bowland area and we stopped in Longridge to ask a couple of locals where to park our motorhome for an hour. They advised us to use the town hall as no one from the council worked at weekends.
They then advised us which cafe to use and I had the largest ham bap with lashings of mustard for just over a quid.
