Morning one and all. Hope your weather is better than ours! I was going to the Eisteddfod Genedlaethol up in Llanrwst today with one of my daughters, but the wind and heavy rain has made us think again.

Same here, I was going to do a cycle event, but that's been cancelled. So went out and bought some spray paint and a microwave.

Neither are linked.

Still team BBQ tomorrow, so don't mind the bad weather happening today

Going to venture into Welshpool, but in the car unfortunately as it is still very windy and wet.

Fired up the bike for the first time in about a month and I didn't even make it to the petrol station before the rain came on. It was sunny earlier when I was at work of course

Back from Welshpool where it was sunny and warm for part of the time. Coming back west for home the weather reverted to overcast and rainy.

Went for a wander down Gt Yarmouth seafront yesterday on a visit with ma and pa. It was flippin blowy down the Acle Straight for those that might know the area and the seafront was so empty for a Saturday in school hols it was amazing. The showers might have had something to do with it though too...

Raising a glass to new Sv owners, former Sv owners, Orger's no longer with us and current Org members. I've had some smashing times on my Sv, and met some genuinely lovely folk ( I've still got to meet a few too)
I had a pang when it went up the road

Sad it's had to go Mav, but there'll be chances for another one when things settle down a bit.
