I have run out of oomph.

We went for a walk this morning and I'm experimenting with moving the big weekly shop to Thursday afternoon instead of Friday morning. I'd also had a text to say my prescription was ready to collect. So, after returning from the walk and having lunch, I drove to the Co-op and bought a trolley full of food. I left the car in the car park and walked through to the chemists to collect my tablets. I just had enough energy left to put the food away in the fridge, freezer and cupboards and then I stopped moving and mooched around on the internet for a couple of hours. Fortunately dinner will be easy, just a curry with some chicken breast and sauce from a can.

Where we went...

We've done this forest walk many times. It's the one I refer to as "The forest walk with the tunnel". It's actually not a tunnel, it's an underpass to take walkers and cyclist safely under the A470 which is the main N-S road through Wales.

We parked in the village of Ganllwyd and walked up beside the village hall. The building was originally a chapel for the gold miners, but was later turned into a village hall. I'll be back there on Monday for the monthly meeting of the Merched y Wawr (the Welsh version of the Women's Institute).

Going up the path we normally walk down. The weather looked dull when we set off, so I didn't take my camera. There are phone snaps. The phone tends to go a bit hysterical and oversaturates the greens. I've toned them back down to more like normal in PhotoShop.

We made it back to the car just before there was a short shower of rain. Then it was just a short drive home in time for lunch.
