Not to bore you all with my private life and travel pictures, but since I love you all, let me tell you this: I finally made it to Dylan Thomas' grave in Laugharne, Wales.
While getting there is a bit of a bitch if you don't have a car, it's worth a visit.
The picture benath is not his grave but what he saw when he looked out of his writing shed, the "heron priested shore". Now with shit like this under the window anybody can write immortal poetry. So, no big deal.
The beer is mine.
Also purchased this book by his late widow
... and man, that's a sad read. It's well written but without one bit of humor and she goes on and on about how ugly Dylan Thomas looked, how small he was, how she was ashamed to walk down the street next to him and so on.
I don't get it.
Still, if you are interested in Dylan Thomas' Life, I'd recommend both, visiting Laugharne and the book.
