EVENTS ON ANGLESEY
Go Out and Meet Nice People
You'll find that there's plenty going on here on Anglesey, whether you're living here or just visiting for an extended holiday.
If you've chosen a particular village like Benllech to return to again and again then you really should visit the local hall.
You'll find it behind the chip shop behind the garage in the square.
Most decent size Anglesey villages have a community or village hall where there are plenty of clubs meeting regularly, Summer and Winter.
The popular attractions at present are Salsa, Belly Dancing and Yoga.
Check out the Ucheldre Centre in Holyhead, Anglesey for regular exhibitions, talks, films, photography and writing clubs to name but a few.
We only pass this way once.
So seek out and keep good company while your above ground.

War Horse (Cert 12A 147 mins) Contains infrequent moderate battle violence. Sat/Sun 2:30pm & 7:30pm
Then Daily at 7:30pm From director Steven Spielberg comes War Horse, an epic adventure for audiences of all ages. Set against a sweeping canvas of rural England and Europe during the First World War, War Horse begins with the remarkable friendship between a horse named Joey and a young man called Albert, who tames and trains him. When they are forcefully parted, the film follows the extraordinary journey of the horse as he moves through the war, changing and inspiring the lives of all those he meets - British cavalry, German soldiers, and a French farmer and his granddaughter - before the story reaches its emotional climax in the heart of No Man's Land. The First World War is experienced through the journey of this horse - an odyssey of joy and sorrow, passionate friendship and high adventure. War Horse is one of the great stories of friendship and war - a successful book, it was turned into a hugely successful international theatrical hit that is arriving on Broadway next year. It now comes to screen in an epic adaptation by one of the great directors in film history, Steven Spielberg.
