Posted on Mon, 21 Aug 2023
Thank you. Where sight and hearing are limited, the sense of touch is satisfying and 'grounding' to reality, and the comfort of 'where I am'. And the stroking, and gentle hugging mean a lot. It's not always easy to get the mean between being...

Remember going up Cater Idris in a rather thick...

You bring the scene to life for those of us who couldn't be there. A camera might have made aided some memories of parts, but couldn't have caught the whole like this. Rhiannon

Trails meander, undiscovered stories That is what is so nice about a bit of wildish woodland, however small, children and we all like the feeling of exploring, and there are so many nooks and carnnies that vary throughout the year. And...

There is a sadness of the seeming arbitrariness of...

Posted on Mon, 09 May 2022

Your ability to share
Posted on Sun, 27 Mar 2022
