Nice pic's Dave. About 10 dolphins in total as close as 2' from the boat.

Abersoch is in the North West corner of Cardigan Bay on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales.

I'd be happy to if that nobber wasn't gonna be there! Meme's allright though!

we had a Dolphin in the Solent once but we killed it!

It's a very magical experience when you come along them seeing so many must have been awesome

Yeh, about as magical as you buying a round.

Don't go all dewy eyed on me and start warbling on about noble creatures and all that.

When you see wildlife, your only concern is whether you can eat it or not.
