i didn’t know you’re family had welsh origins. mine does too. hence the spelling of my first name.

Thats what its going to look like on my computer screen right before I blow it up with a smart bomb. I’m a hacker now.

My aunt Sue and Uncle Fred Diggles actually went to Diggle in Wales and the local mayor or some such showed them around. We should get a gang of us together and go! Fred passed away at not quite 90 a few years back. Sue is still alive and well and living and painting in San Luis Obispo, Calif.

Take care and I’d vote for you being Google’s “Number 1″
–Mike Diggles (that guy who owns diggles.com).

Dude! Awesome! It is so cool to have some interaction from the guy who owns diggles.com! I would like to make a trip out there and check it out. I have convinced myself that at least one pub would give me a free pint solely because my last name jived with the town.

Thanks Mike!

I have been to Diggle, England and stayed at the Diggle Hotel. There is a lovely hiking trail that leads up a hill to see a sweeping view of the beautiful moorland. It is interesting to note that there are not many Diggles that actually live there.
