Snail mail.

Our broadband speeds have been slowing down and on wet days going away completely. In our case it was leaves on the line of sight! There are trees between us and the transmitter ( we get broadband via a local wifi system) and when it rains the wetness blocks the signal. So today the guys have moved the receiver to a clear line of sight with no trees and I have re-routed the cable and we are back in business.

Pottering....

We spent the weekend in St David's walking more of the Wales Coastal path. 



Today was a day of pottering about waiting for visitors. French and runner beans have been planted and courgettes too.
These are some plants we bought from a nursery in St David's.

Never mind the garden.......

The book is here! And to think it has only taken two and a half years!


Our cottage is in the bottom left hand corner but doesn't feature in the book as it was a derelict barn at the time of the 1839 tythe which is the key date for the survey. 
The photo credits page explains my involvement.
