It didn’t look promising for today and it started pouring from 9.30am. This was unfortunate, since Geoff’s family were coming to visit and what can you do in the rain?
We had tea, then lunch at the Castle Hotel in Bishop’s Castle. By this time it was windy, but the sky had cleared and it was a gorgeous day, so we headed for Snailbeach and the lead mines and then on to the Old School House tea room at the Bog (thanks for the tip Steve!).
When we got back, people had started hang gliding on the Mynd, so we went up for a look and a chat. Turned into a really nice evening…

I was the only one stupid enough to sit most of the day at the top of Merthyr, with a constant stream of spectacular showers coming through and putting the hill into cloud at times. I’d thought that going south west would be the first place to dry up, but it didn’t and in fact coming back onto the flatlands showed that it was much drier there and had been all day. Oh well worth a trip, first time in 10 years and it’s just as much a rubbish tip as ever.
