The Constant Husband

Dear John,

I came across your site this afternoon after a wonderul two hours watching "Blow Up" and I've been browsing happily for the past hour. As I live in Deptford and wander the streets of Lewisham, Greenwich and Woolwich fairly regularly it's been fairly obvious where some of the already recognised streets are.

..................good stuff eh!

I work in Chelsea so many of those locations are quite familiar also, annoyingly however I think I can tell you about one of the locations you seem to be having trouble recognising and I can't get there!

.................not perhaps for Blow Up, but for Constant Husband I assume

I was born and bred in the depths of west Wales and I even had the wonderful experience of going back there to do my degree and I am sure that I have recognised the opening scenes of the Constant Husband as Aberaeron in Cardiganshire.

.................mmmmmmmmmmmmm, I was told last week that it was New Quay

The first scenes are down by the harbour, heading back inland to the main road. There may be some pictures of the place online somewhere as it is a very popular destination for tourists.

...................and the opening pub scene is a house now called Mildraeth, and a pic was sent

Obviously as i am stuck in SE London I can't take any photos but if a finders fee is available.......!!!

...............but as you see, one's memory plays tricks. I've done it myself. Absolutely sure of a location, until I try and find it. I used to pay a finder's fee, £5.00, but got caught too many times. So, if you have an address, keep it to yourself until you have photo evidence, then, BINGO, a tenner!

Nice site
Tim Griffiths

..............Thanks all the same, and best wishes
