Listen to your body . . .

 I have to say, the 3 day weekend was pretty full on.  I babysat Rosie on Friday - away out of the house by 7, and not back until gone 8 p.m. and then Rosie was still awake at 10 as she had slept in the car coming here from Aber.  I had no chance of "down time".

A rare Llandod picture.  This is now the pharmacy, and the road immediately by it leads down to the Lake.

Saturday we went to Llandod, and then Rosie was pretty full on back at home, and same on Sunday, though the day was broken up going to Brecon, and walking around the mostly empty town.  The Militaria Fair that Keith and I used to do was on in the Market building, so I popped in to say hello to some friends, had BIG hugs with them, and then joined Tam in the Cat Shelter charity shop.  All thoughts of going for a walk were off as it was threatening to rain on and off all day.

One of the huge Victorian houses in the town (which is 95% Victorian architecture, built in a short period to make the most of the Spa wells in the town). I loved the attic window design.

Tam and Jon had bought a huge, nay ENORMOUS tent from Vinted.  She put it (having been checked) in the back of my car, and we needed to get it out for the base to be totally dried off before it went back into the bag.  We managed it, between showers, but gosh, it's not easy to pack!  It's so big you could have a Festival in it!  Fortunately the rain held off long enough.

This was probably once a hotel.

Tam helped me with various jobs I had on my list.  The best thing she did was to change my Smarty phone plan which she had originally set up for 2G because I didn't use my phone much.  However, listening to (many) hours of Podcasts has decreed that I needed more and she upgraded it to 8G for the same money.  That put a smile on my face.  I am late to Podcasts but enjoy them SO MUCH.  Three Ravens is my favourite, and Dan's Snow's History Hit, Medieval Murders, Ramblings, The Poisoners' Cabinet.  Must look for Archaeology ones too.  OMG - just checked and don't know where to start!  Anyway, we sorted out banking too, Vistaprint for my business cards and got a sack (have 3) of FYM up to the top of the paddock for the Winter Squashes whichTam and Rosie sowed yesterday.  Didn't get around to bleeding the radiators, and I didn't sort out my small camera and charging/changing batteries until this morning.  Nearly there though, and Ed and friend carried up the other two sacks of FYM for me.

I felt really tired after lunch, and went for a nap and slept for over 2 hours, so that was the entire afternoon gone (was going to garden).  Tomorrow is another day.  Having Rosie here is exhausting.

I watched the final episode of Outlander last night - on tenterhooks tbh.  It was well done.  I won't spoil it for you in case you haven't watched it, but I do feel absolutely lost without it now.  Will have to buy her last book in case she writes a totally different ending.  We have all been reading the books/watching the series so many years, the characters seem almost like family now.
