It's Spring Astronomy Day and apparently the Moon and Mars will be at their closest point this year tonight. Here's hoping for clear skies. Also World Whiskey Day, though more importantly the first whisky from North Wales for over 120 years goes on sale this week. Also Penderyn are getting excited about their new distillery in Llandudno. There is another company getting in on the whisky act round here.
The Mickey Mouse short Plane Crazy had it's initial release this day in 1928.
Want to buy a railway carriage? Llangolen Heritage Railway are auctioning carriages in an attempt to stay afloat. It reminded me of times when Connex ( supposed to sound like 'connects' but most folk called it 'Con-X') had the rail franchise round London and the South East. There were occasions when they needed to borrow carriages from the preservation society to keep the service flowing. And it was often the better way to travel.
