245 - Springtime in North Wales, picnic in the rain

Springtime in North Wales, picnic in the rain
On Holy Island; Arthurian lunch
With ham and cheese sandwiches on terrain
Of seaweed and grass, stones and shells that crunch,
And tiny crabs that make great big girls cringe,
And dabbing tear-choked cheeks and grabbing coke,
And toilet stop in Beaumaris; next, plunge
Accelerator down - this car is smoke -
To reach Llandudno: fairground rides or broke.
But Kavern Records boarded up - what pain!
Downloading dries the profits like a sponge,
Along with supermarkets. Lazy folk!
We eat inside the Fountains pub again,
But what a dirty place to sit and munch.
