September 10 2016 Red Bull Cliff Diving at Abereiddi Issue 20 November 2016 September 10th 2016 Red Bull Cliff Diving at Abereiddi – for one EPIC day only, as the weather closed in! 1 Red Bull Cliff Diving in Abereiddi Giant mirrored letters towered over the Blue Lagoon in Abereiddi for a week in September. Visit Wales was using the art installation to draw people's attention to some of Wales' most spectacular places. And it was also certainly an epic day in Abereiddi on Saturday 10th September for those lucky enough to have tickets to watch the return of Red Bull Cliff Diving. This year, women as well as men were spectacularly flinging themselves into the Blue Lagoon from ridiculous heights. The sun shone on the divers, and the stunning aerobatic display was performed in almost perfect conditions. But as the afternoon drew on, the wind and the swell were already picking up, and Sunday‟s forecasts for strong gusts forced the decision to cancel all diving the next day, and the event was completed in just the one day. There were many disappointed people who had acquired much sought-after tickets for Sunday‟s final, with some travelling long distances, and all expecting to witness the eagerly anticipated event, only to be thwarted by southerly gales. Quote from one spectator...Wings? No, Red Bull gives you Wind!! Fun too in Porthgain..... Pirates in Porthgain - ‘Pirate’ Graham Hurd-Wood on what keeps them playing... One of those very special nights took place at The Sloop, Porthgain, on the last Bank Holiday of summer 2016. There is always celebration and jollification at these events. This photograph of the Pembrokeshire Ukulele Pirates, taken outside the inn, is a timeless portrayal of an eclectic group of locals thrashing out good old rock‟n‟roll, with lamenting ballads and classic sea shanties thrown in. Photo: Dave Davies 2 The atmosphere on this particular night was magical, with a crowd just as diverse as the band. From the iconic Jonathan Lloyd with his poetic, flamboyant humour, to the young generation of fisherman with their vociferous banter without a hint of animosity. To me this highlights the warm community of the Pembrokeshire peninsula, where all sides of life are embraced. Our first set was followed by a stunning firework display with the historic, monolithic brick quarry buildings silhouetted against the Pembrokeshire sky. This was followed by our electric second dance set, enabling folk to hoof it with an invigorating circular motion. With ages ranging from fifteen upwards, the ethos of the Pirates is 'all welcome', from the novices to the pros, and above all to have an enormous amount of fun. Importantly, all the proceeds from our performances go to charity, the main recipients being Paul Sartori and the very deserving local hospice, Shalom House. Most of us have lost someone to a terminal illness, whether friends or family, and to witness how the staff at these hospices help relieve this suffering is awe-inspiring. This drives the Pirates forward each year to raise funds and awareness. And another memorable day.... A Special Day and a Wonderful Evening - the Pale Moon cricket game and charity concert wow the crowds again: For the third year running the Pale Moon rose again, managing to surpass all expectations, and then some. The glorious late summer‟s day started with another highly spirited cricket match between the Llanrhian Legends and The Flynn Allstars in which it would be fair to say the Allstars got their younger hinds well and truly whipped by a grisly yet highly determined mixture of old timers, part timers and young guns, captained once again with typical wiliness, by the sleek and evergreen „Morgan the Moon‟ Miles. This year there was a steeliness to the local legends that evoked memories of the glory days when touring teams from Kentish climes would come away with precious little except the certainty of a damned good night out. Some Allstars have since said that it was the sheer excellence and volume of the teas that caused their batting performance to be so painfully lacking in.....batting. (Thank you all tea makers, absolutely amazing!) The sentiment and purpose of the Pale Moon Day has always been about the celebration of our wonderful Community, a gathering together in the spirit of love and generosity, whilst raising money for those in need. This year the cause was one that hit a particularly strong chord locally, raising funds to support the Willington family who so tragically lost Gareth and Daniel off our coast in the spring. Right from the doors opening, there was an air of sweetness and excitement. This year‟s event was an enormous leap in scale, made possible by the massive marquee, donated by the huge-hearted Ian Griffiths from Celtic Camping, who gave his time, his property, his wonderful team and a lot more to making it such a successful Big Night Out. Indeed the generosity from throughout the community for the making of this event was very considerable and heartening to say the least. 3 From humble beginnings three years ago serving snacks and BYO, to this year‟s team of around 20 people, the event has clearly made a big impact on all involved, both volunteers and guests alike. We were served a wonderful vegetarian curry made by Andy Holcroft, followed by sumptuous brownies made by the lovely Sophie Wellan. The atmosphere was electric, with over 400 people from our local communities, as well as those who had travelled long distances to hear the bands. With the sun setting on the sea behind her, the returning Jodie Marie opened with her exquisite soulful tones lulling our hearts into submission. Then our own living legend, Rob Rees, graced us again with his deeply moving folk songs, followed by another highly admired home-grown boy, Johnny Flynn, who along with sister Lillie and the brilliant makeshift band, wowed us with a special brand of modern folksey magic. In the midst of this musical feast we had a phenomenal auction, a long hour of hilarity and serious moneymaking hosted by Pembrokeshire's favourite compère, the newlywed Andy Houghton, who between bantering and bartering in tandem with Jerome Flynn, brought the crowd to their feet by appearing in his underpants to do a spot of ironing on stage - all this to bravely honour a pledge from last year‟s spontaneous auction. It was the champagne moment of the evening- thank you Houghtie! Then, prompted and cajoled by his evil brother, Jerome found himself pledging a similar scantily clad scenario, with a song thrown in (you would think people would pay for that not to happen! ).....but bid they did! (It is rumoured that he has since claimed diminished responsibility due to welsh vodka consumption and is trying to find loopholes in the agreement.) After much flowing generosity, the auction ended and musical treats continued with Holly Holden and Y Su Banda getting everybody swinging with their unique calypso jive .Then Johnny and Lillie joined everyone and the joint was really jumping. But when at around 11pm the wonderful and highly energetic Irish jigsters, Trabba, came on, all those who thought they were flagging suddenly got a second wind….. the dance floor was packed, grand craic was had and we all jigged and jived to the early hours…It was one of those truly memorable evenings which curiously can be quite hard to remember! 4 Huge thanks go out to the many who gave of their gifts, their time, their cash and their hearts....it all felt like one big heart. And special thanks to the amazing core team of wonder women, Amanda, Shayne, Belle, Penny, Clare and Kate who gave so much of their time to pull it all together. We are still counting all the various amounts, but so far, we know we are going to be able to give Alice and Gail Willington over £13,000. A testament to the good will and love flowing through our wonderful community. See you all there for the next one! And now for the serious cricket..... Clwb Criced Llanrhian Cricket Club The Llanrhian First XI saw their four year stint in the top division of Pembrokeshire cricket end after a difficult year where the squad struggled with injuries and player unavailability. Having been promoted to the top flight in 2012, the side defied all odds to stay up in 2013, 2014, and 2015, becoming the first Llanrhian side in history to survive more than one season in Division 1. However, the loss of key bowler Dominic Wright for much of the summer was compounded to an early season injury to another pivotal player in Matthew Bennett – which contributed to a tough start that saw defeats to Narberth, St Ishmaels, Johnston and Whitland. There were then promising signs against the likes of Cresselly, Neyland, Lawrenny, Carew and Haverfordwest – but the side failed to convert good positions into wins. Indeed, it wasn‟t until then return fixture with Neyland on July 23rd that the side avoided defeat for the one (and only) time this season, playing out a draw with the then leaders in a much improved display. Sadly, the inevitable relegation was confirmed in August, but all was not lost with youngsters like Karl Davies and Ryan John gaining First XI experience, while Sam Kurtz joined the ranks from Crymych and fitted in well. Luke Jones bowling for the First XI Geraint Morris led the batting stakes with three half centuries – and there will be plenty for the side to be positive about as they look to rebuild in Division 2 next season.
