This summer is the best reminder ever that Wales' tourist chiefs need to do a bit more than bang on about the outdoors. Right now the outdoors is invisible under a thick layer of hill fog. Tony Earnshaw, head of film programming at the National Media Museum, Bradford said in yesterday's Western Mail that Richard Burton's legacy could be much better promoted. Same goes for many other famous Welsh names - where is the Aneurin Bevan centre? The Tom Jones tour? Ditto other assets - Wales' contribution to railways, to democracy and politics - all are ignored. There's got to be more to visiting Wales than a few mountains.
