WOYWW

 

Good morning all 

I'm back from my little break in Llandudno. We had a lovely time with walking, train rides and laughter. It's so good to meet up with old school friends.

We walked in Bodnant Gardens.   



Then we walked along the pier in Llandudno and saw this on the prom. There are so many seagulls waiting for a chippy snack.🤣



On Thursday we had a train ride down the Conwy valley and I snapped this little steam engine in Blaenau Festiniog. We saw herons and egrets on the river bank.


I even snapped a salmon leaping the falls at Bettws y Coed. You might have to enlarge the picture and look closely near that timy fall of water. It is there, believe me.🦈

So that's my busy little week.

I am back to helping Tilly Tea Dance this week but hopefully I will have time to visit your desks 

Have a good week.

WOYWW

Firstly, thanks for all your replies about food for the crop. I am sure we can cope with any that have come in so far - don't forget to let me know if you haven't already done so.
June 1st is getting closer! I hope we manage a lovely sunny day like we have had for the last few days - it has been glorious hasn't it.

We spent a few days in Llandudno and it couldn't have been better.

Bodnant was stunning, although the laburnum arch wasn't quite out yet.




Llandudno Great Orme tram ride took us to the top to see the most lovely views around the coast.
In the walled garden of Penryn Castle the thrushes sang their hearts out, providing a stunning, tuneful background to such a lovely spot. I can't say the same for the "castle". It has an amazing view across to the coast and Snowdonia but I found the inside quite oppressive even though it had some fascinating details and excellent guides.
I thought you might like to see a few photos....









My desk has seen little action - except for a tiny bit of finishing off work on my ATCs.

I will be taking them to the crop for anyone there who would like one, and, of course, there will be one for my "pay it forward" buddy as described in Julia's post here.

Have a great week.
See you soon.
