Staying with High Streets, I once again fell foul of Arriva's dire choo-choo service today with signal failures in Cardiff causing delays then the poxy thing conking out in a place called Abercynon on the Aberdare line. But as fate would have it, I was glad it did because otherwise I wouldn't have had a nose round the place 'cos the main street was like stepping back in time with the majority of shops' facades remaining donkey's years old. The most fascinating was a barber's shop which is the most old fashioned I've ever clapped eyes on. It said established in the 1920s on the front, and the interior likely remains as it was in every respect from almost a century ago. If and when it closes it would make a great addition at St Fagans.
