Having visited the Castle Hotel in Neath, and establishments in Aberavon, I'm not adding any further comments.....
19 Nov 75 Drove to Neath Castle Hotel. Terrible. Moved to 'Executive' Hotel, Aberavon. Pretty bad too but had a bath to go with it. Tonight a suite...Weather wild and Welsh. Had beer and felt very ill.

Just learned that there's a dog that lives in my street who goes by the name Ezra.
