We were to leave our comfy cottage in Rhyd Ddu a day earlier as the forecast was so bad for the Friday we thought we may as well travel home during the rain. On the Thursday our friends and old neighbours from Nannerch joined us and little photography was done but more eating substituted. As we motored home we stopped in a little wood at the side of the road near Beddgelert to take a few snaps - and that was it. So only three pictures, and one of these is a black and white conversion.

We had rented a small cottage, just for the two of us in Rhyd Ddu (pronounced  hrreed thee ), a tiny hamlet with one tea room and one pub north and in the shadow of Snowdon. The Welsh Highland railway stops here and there is also a path up to the top of Snowdon which starts from here. Hettie the dog is too elderly to attempt this. On the morning of our first day here the weather was sunny but deteriorated during the day. Alan took his bike on a circular tour of Snowdon and I walked a boggy path with Hettie.
