Posted on August 23, 2017 by Sue Vincent

The Wyrm and the Wyrd: In search of breakfast

Posted on July 1, 2017 by Sue Vincent

We were surprised to find that breakfast would not be forthcoming. While we could, undoubtedly, have booked it separately, it was almost a matter of principle not to do so. I consider it cheating to neither include the meal in … Continue reading →

The Wyrm and the Wyrd: Under hill… and under construction

Posted on June 30, 2017 by Sue Vincent

The road through Snowdonia was spectacular…at least, once we had left behind the rush hour traffic on the main coast road that delayed us.  Realising we might miss the pre-evening drinks, my companion sent a text to say we would … Continue reading →

The Wyrm and the Wyrd: Stone and bone

Posted on June 25, 2017 by Sue Vincent

I was distinctly sceptical…unsure what to expect when we parked at the entrance to the mines. So many ancient sites, once commercialised, seem to lose both their intimacy and essence, but I remembered watching something about the discovery many years … Continue reading →

The church with the feet

Posted on June 5, 2017 by Sue Vincent
