The wife had me out walking again this afternoon i'm sure shes trying to kill me off the walk back up from it was long and steep

We visited the tallest straight drop waterfall in south wales Henrhyd Falls. Not very impressive today as the flow was low but a bit of fame attached to it as it was used as the entrance to the Batcave in the Batman film The Dark Knight Rises.

And is there somewhere she could hide your body?

That was a short walk Bob probably 20 minutes down to it but its a steep gravel covered path on the way down and after that there's some steep wooden steps on the other side which aren't too bad really coming back up the hill had me stopping to rest on every tree i'm just not fit at all LOL

I might have a go at that later in the year 👍

Cycled down to the beach today. Only the one photo though. The headwind on the way back was brutal!

Nothing worse than a headwind when your cycling, even going uphill is better than that.

Yeah, it was hard work, Bob, but we got there! 😉👍

As it was a cracking day today so we drove to another part of the river, much nearer to Bath than Bristol.  It was great walk and we saw loads of wildlife, butterflies, dragon and damsel flies.  Two herons and then just caught sight of a kingfisher flying under the old railway bridge, first one i've seen for years.

Just gone for a local walk around the roads as down by the river will be muddy with all the rain we’ve had.

We came across this old graveyard which happens to have a brand new nursing home built behind it 😳

That’ll save a bit on transport costs.
