Cabin fever

By this morning it had been raining cats and dogs for about 36hours and we wondered gloomily if we would ever get out for a sniff of fresh air and a change of scene, the end of my second week without going anywhere, home was beginning to lose it's attraction. So grumpily we set out with wellies and raincoats, hoping to look at the sea and blow away the cobwebs. We had not gone far when we spyed blue sky in the west so headed for Aberaerion, the boats jiggled in the harbour and the waves crashed on the shore, the sunshine gave everything a sparkle. Lunchtime! The harbour master becons to us, we sat in the cwtch, it had once been the porch but was now an intimate little sunroom with just one table, there we sat warming ourselves in the bright february sunshine, and we dined on fish. Then off for a walk on the seashore, but a biting wind drove us back into town and along the river Aeron where the water rushed passed at increadible speed, then back home. Where Nikki is cooking venison pie for the home crowd, it smells very good.
