The start of the month found us revisiting old haunts around Crickhowell - that most English of towns in Wales on the northern edge of the Brecon Beacons. And so quiet. Lunch amongst the ruins at Llanthony with only 5 others in the pub!
Slightly closer to home, our annual pilgrimage to Southwold was met with rain and a very unappealing sea more in keeping with winter than July.
Again very few people about - but that was not surprising! The town stays much as it always was and still slightly puzzling, as the hinterland is hardly attractive. We will of course return!
Monday found us wandering round Holt with friends. It's not that long since I visited and its only 20 miles away but it seemed like quite a few things had changed or were in the process of so doing. It seems odd to find shops closed for 'refurbishment' in the middle of the summer holidays, but then again maybe that is the time to do it. I just hope they're finished by when the sun returns!
