When there was still sunshine about!

 

Few words tonight as my asthma's not been very good and I was awake half the night (from 3.45 onwards).  Photos from a walk up the hill recently - just before tea on Saturday I think.  

Update: Wednesday morning now and I am feeling more like my old self now I have caught up on my sleep a bit.  Yeesh - yesterday was not a good day to be inside my body - the brain just wasn't syncing at all!  We have another "bruised" sky start to the day here so I am guessing a lot more rain is in the offing.  I didn't catch a weather forecast yesterday.

Yesterday afternoon we put my bright craft light to good use to put back together the two lengths of cable and the rocker switch for one of the lamps in the last post.  Unfortunately when we plugged it in, zilch, so we need to go into the ironmongers in town and get replacement rocker switches now.  I have to say, the craft light was a great improvement on holding a torch under my chin to give some light!

I took my camera with me yesterday, planning to stop and get some photos up on the Eppynts, but in the end nothing really caught my eye as a striking picture.  A shame I couldn't have stopped on the way back from Carmarthen on Monday, as there were some Rowan trees absolutely laden with berries with a backdrop of dark green conifers and with the sun on them too.  Along the hedgerows (those that haven't been cut back for the winter) there are the last of the Rosebay Willowherb leaves, their brilliant flame pink and amber foliage fading now.  

A hint of a rainbow.

Nature is always hopeful.

Right, my brain is saying it's had too much screen time.  An early night for me tonight.
