After waiting almost three years the wife has received an "Oops we forgot" letter from the hospital and will be going in for shoulder surgery second week of November. After which I'll be grounded till into the new year as the five C's take on new meaning for me, Cooking, Cleaning, Carrying, Caring etc while she recovers. Star that she is I'm being allowed out for a mini adventure up around Llyn Brianne before she goes in.
Of course there's always a catch and she's also issued dire warnings for the consequences of:
This is her way on nicely saying to stay south of the Fannog and off the moor if at all possible. As the forecast is looking more than a little iffy with weather warnings issued I'm inclined to agree with her. Rain does strange things up there, footpaths become streams and the ground so soft you begin to wonder if snowshoes might be a good idea. On the plus side I've been wanting to explore the Henog valley area for a while and forest access roads do make for easier going. If anybody else is at a loose end or escaped from their asylum this weekend I'll be heading out from Llanwrtyd Wells no later than 11am, look for the fool with a bergen.
