Elen, just take the main road through the Elan valley. When you get to the junction cross the bridge on Garreg-ddu dam and go right to the end to visit Claerwen dam. Then come back, and take the other road up past all the other dams, stopping at each one for photographs. At the end you come to a T-junction, at which you turn right and that takes you back to Rhayader. Go into the visitor centre before you do anything else and get a free map. they are quite helpful in there, and will also point out what is about bird-wise.

Frosty winter morning today. I found this nice arrangement of different leafes just outside my front door in the middle of the town beside a busy road.

Not very bushy, but tonight whilst visiting my dad I spotted an old fireman's helmet, in brass, that had been handed down from my grandfather from when he was Chief Fire Officer for Monmouthshire Fire Brigade.

I'm fairly sure this is a ceremonial or decorative helmet, rather than a practical one, being made of brass, and it is dented and dusty, but I love it. The badge says "National Fire Brigades Association"
