Weather not good for walking

[heleninwales]

Another dreary week regarding weather, so we didn't go for a walk until Saturday, and then only to Penmaenpool and back. It had been very windy overnight and was still rather windy on Saturday morning, so we didn't fancy the forest.

Cader Idris ought to be visible in this photo, but it's hidden by the low cloud. All that can be seen in the v-shaped gap in the hills is a grey mist.



However, the weather was much better yesterday (Sunday). It was a day when we hold a small Quaker meeting at M's house. I needed to do a top-up food shop so drove to Eurospar, did my shopping and then left the car in their car park. (They don't have a time limit, unlike the Co-op.) I then plodded up the very steep hill to her house. After meeting, the three of us who are the active members held an impromptu follow-up meeting standing in the lovely bright sunshine, admiring the stunning view you get from M's house. Sheltered from the wind, we could even feel warmth in the sunlight. There were also snowdrops in M's hedge.



And now, of course, it's cold and dark and tipping down with rain. Such a change from yesterday.

I haven't seen any snowdrop clumps this year so I'm grateful for your pics

My friend has a sheltered south facing garden, so this little clump of crocuses can be relied on to bloom early. There should be some in the graveyard round the parish church, but there's no sign of them yet.
