Palm Sunday bimble on the Black Mountains

Palm Sunday is known as The Flowers Sunday in Wales – Sul y Blodau (Phonetically – Seal urh blodye) – and it is a big thing. Tradionally it is the day we tend to loved ones graves and put flowers in rememberence and to honour them. Yesterday I did just that, honoured my grandparents, my […]

But I’m gonna be where the lights are shinin’ on me

Every now and again in life something occurs to remind you what living is all about. A little walk up Narberth High Street yesterday and I am blown away to see the poster for the book launch on the screens outside the Queens Hall. It is only a few weeks until the launch on September […]
