I've just discovered that the pub (from yesterday) was voted by someone as one of the top 10 beach pubs in the world and the Best Pub in Wales !! Commodore of Holyhead Sailing Club has just told me that ( although he has had a few) but, because of his info, I just Googled it and
Ty Coch Inn, Porthdinllaen
www.tycoch.co.uk/
The Ty Coch Inn is arguably the best pub in Wales and OFFICIALLY in the top ten beach bars in the world... according to a recent survey Nipped round to Holyhead this morning. Pretty straightforward with the exception of the last 3 miles. I past a headland called North Stack. A bit playful. I moored at Holyhead for 5 hrs before I found the motivation to row ashore then changed my mind and had a nap. I'm starting to like living aboard and every time I arrive somewhere I have developed a routine for putting things away, cleaning and cooking. In addition to my seeking a future income by writing a 'Top Seaside Pub Guide' I may also try my hand at a ' No Fuss' cooking guide. Ive developed my breakfast to a point where Im happy to post this photo.
Great eh ? The reason is to do with colour, simplicity, speed and, of course, flavour. The beans (on left) need no explanation. The pan on the right is the clever one. Start by popping some veg oil in pan. Add bacon and broken off chunks of a wholemeal bread roll. Fry to brown then chuck in 2 x eggs. if you slightly burn the fried stuff you can flip it straight onto a plate and the pan is left spotless so no washing up. Genius.
Anyway, got picked up by Sailing Club launch at 8 pm and had a really brilliant night watching a band in Clubhouse. Everyone so friendly and hilarious coming back in the pouring rain, people all shouting 'mines the white one' etc. A couple of 'well oiled' scousers were telling me that they were off to Ireland on Monday. They both got off the launch into a boat not much longer than them. Didn't bat an eyelid. Amazing the differences in how people perceive danger.
I may leave at 8am, for the trip across The Irish Sea, to The Isle of Man, but given that Im writing this now, I may postpone until Monday.
