Photos, Cathedrals and Families

So it's been a while, and I have been busy and it's summer.  None of these good reasons I know but still a reason to be away from the laptop or a substantial amount of time.  But I shall make up for it now with photos galore.  Or a few anyway.

So a summer of living at home has its benefits.  As well as getting to see a lot more of my mum I have been able to get rid of a lot of my stuff and even pick up some new junk - including a really old digital camera.  Which takes surprisingly good pictures!

Last weekend was spent mostly at the gorgeous Llandaff Cathedral in Cardiff with the Bearded One.  It is a truly beautiful building tucked away at the bottom of the hill.

I spent a lot of time listening to the Bearded One sing with his choir - with a surprise meeting of half the family thrown in for good measure!  But there were all lovely and the kids gave us an excuse to go and play at being Romans - the boys more so than anyone else!

In all a rather fun weekend.  Next weekend it's off up north to see him again.  Train changeovers, suitcases to work, the whole shabang.  But it'll all be worth it I'm sure.

Boredom leads to exploration...

Flowers In The Rain

Everyone has moved out, it's still another day until the Bearded One returns to the land of the living, and boredom has well and truly set in!  So what did I do?  I went for a walk in the rain and decided to finally explore the place I've been living for a year.  Oldbury Court Estate was almost completely deserted but still looked gorgeous!  But what happened?  Yeah, I didn't check my batteries before I left so I got four shots before it died on me.  But these flowers came out beautifully thankfully!  Next week more exploring in store so hopefully more shots in store!!

Candid Camera

Small party at home to celebrate the new year, and I took about ten decent pictures.  I did try, but the camera moved around the room and I lost track of it for most of the night.  Candid snaps are my favourite!
