Day 361 Fresh Air

Tuesday 27 December


Ian's foot has been painful since the end of last week and he's been trying to rest it.  Today however he was desperate to get out of the house so we went for a drive around the Brecon Beacons.  It was a cold miserable grey day with intermittent drizzle and I took my camera without much hope of a decent photo.   When we turned of the Heads of the Valleys Road over Llangynidr Mountain I spotted these electricity pylons.  They're the sort of thing I usually avoid photographing but today they seemed to be appropriate for the mood of the day and added to the bleakness of the moorland

 From Llangynidr we drove over the old narrow mediaeval bridge then took the road past Tretower  to Talgarth.  We were hoping for a cup of tea at the Honey Pot but it was closed.  We headed to Brecon then and Storey Arms where we had our cup of tea with a bacon roll in the biting wind of the car park.  There were quite a few hardy bikers up there, personally I was grateful for a nice warm car!  From there we came home & took things easy for the rest of the day
