Postcard From Wales

I'm back from a wonderful weekend spent with Karen and Shedman of An Artist's Garden. The photo is a view of one of my favourite places in the whole world, the Mawddach Estuary taken whilst out walking with Karen and Dobby on Saturday afternoon. As you can see it was sunny in Wales :o

It was so sunny and warm, lunch was taken al fresco and I've acquired a tan! We visited Elizabeth at Welsh Hills Again and Kate from Beangenie popped in for a while, so there was plenty of time to see blogging friends :)

A more gardeny post will follow...

  2. It's a lovely place VP. I love Wales when it's sunny.

    I was there (Max Boyce!!) earlier in the year 'not' catching any fish...

  3. I'd agree with you there, I spent a week in Barmouth on a uni field trip doing various tests around the estuary. A stunning location!

  16. The estuary is fabulous place, and I so like the towns nearby: Mach. is great place and I like Dolgell. too.

    Pity the course isn't running next week - Elizabeth was coming too.

  17. Zoe - it is :)

    Elizabeth - it was great to see you and have a proper chat at last :)

    NG - so must I!

    Mark - the first thing Elizabeth said was 'Our course isn't running!'. She was just about to email me to tell me she was on it when they told her it's cancelled. Hope you're having a good week at Ty Newydd anyway :)
