Greetings from Sunny Solva. Back home in West Wales and visiting some of my old haunts. If there’s a more beautiful place on planet Earth, I’m yet to find it.

I’m still trying to process what just happened tonight. The singing was next level. From the crowd not me! I had so many words of gratitude in my mind but in the end it was all I could do to keep the music flowing & not lose my way with the emotion flooding down.

Meet Rollo, a rescue dog we've been fostering. He wasn’t in great shape when we got him but has made remarkable progress since settling in. If you’re ever thinking of getting a dog, there are so many out there in need of a good home. It can be a challenge, but a rewarding one.
