Nearing the end of a productive day picking off most of my remaining Isle of Anglesey pillars by bicycle. Seven were sought for and each was found being still in good condition. This one, whilst not the best of the bunch, was a nice one to finish with up on its perch. I just had to oblige it and climbed on top. Wonderful. I dismounted, one contented trigger, and returned to Llanfair P.G. with plenty of time to catch the 1613 train back home.
