I'm not a morning person

Especially when camping. I envy those people who wake up bright and early feeling refreshed. I'm not one of them. At 2am, 3am, 4am even, i'm wide awake without fail and raring to go. 7am, 8am, 9am - forget it. I don't want to know...

Fresh-sea-air-itis

How do people who live by the sea manage to stay awake for a full day?! Whenever i head to the coast i always succumb to sleepy-itis on the second day.

Something had an effect on these ponies, but I'll save this for the video....

It's never easy getting up!

I've been awake for nearly 3 hours but it's never easy getting up - even though i'm now surrounded by people going about their daily business. I don't think anyone has even noticed i'm here!

View towards Pembroke and angle. One of the first gas tankers is in the docks with a gas cargo destined for gloucester via the pipeline through Ross-on-Wye.

J at Milford

Rendezvous with j

We ago to have 3 joint camping trips per year. The first nearly didn't happen then we returned early, the second was cancelled when i caught my 1st cold in 4 years and j wisely did a runner so joining him for the last day of his holls sounded like a good idea - despite being postponed twice.

A change from the rain

If ever there was a day when I didn't feel like traveling or setting off on a camping jaunt, then today is it.

Having already delayed this by a day twice, here I am, but wishing I wasn't.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I normally look forward to my camping trips and this was no exception.

Moan over...!

The Elan Valley in the Great British Mid-Summer...

A not-very-sunny day in the Elan Valley before visiting the Royal Welsh Show at Builth Wells tomorrow.

The Elan Valley is one of my favourite places but is very much more attractive in bright weather. These pics were taken very quickly inbetween very heavy downpours which continued throughout the day.
