This happened to us yesterday (Sunday) after just 40 minutes of rain. House unliveable, workshop, gym and car ruined. Uprooted trees upstream and blocked every culvert, nature is impressive. Never happened here in 200+ years. 2 hours earlier,were in paddling pool in heatwave. 🤷♂️

Newtown Powys. Selling NZ lamb on a shelf stating that its local Welsh lamb. Misleading (again) consumers that do actually want to support Welsh farmers

Gonna miss these guys. Made a hard lambing bearable and lightened the load/mood and a great giggle even. Keep smiling farmers.

Very satisfying getting this new water infrastructure in place just as the holiday cottage guests arrived to find me covered in mud. 2 new troughs and a spare hook up for movable tanks. There are breeze blocks under there and I know, I’m no carpenter🙄

Escaped from the out laws, deserting mrs P and the boys. Was heading out out to prove that I am still socially acceptable, but our house, it's so quiet, peaceful without children and noise, so comfy. Zzzzz.
