Last Saturday I was lucky enough to go on a tour of the Spirit of Wales distillery in Maesglas. It was great, very interesting and it is wonderful to see a terrific craft business doing so well in the locality. I will definitely be buying gifts from there in the future. (Some for me! That cherry liqueur 😊🍒)

Warning - the last picture is HIDEOUS. Jamesey made a grave error with his footwear choice today. Another small but perfectly formed walking group, another 35 miles in the bag between the 6 of us taking our total up to 537 all for .

Beautiful Pontymoile was lovely, a gorgeous walk all down the Brecon and Monmouth canal from the Star.  Thank heavens it was dry this week after last week's absolute soaking - but it wasn't quite as much of an adventure as last Sunday.

And no one had to take their trousers off in the car park this week so that was a decided bonus!

Can you spare a few quid to help us on our way to raising £3,400 for Metal For Good by walking 3400 miles?

Where are we off next week? Where do you think we should go?
