A Weekend in Wales
Montgomery Castle
Rhaedr Waterfall
Lake Vyrnwy
A singing walk
Powys Castle
Some Welsh Cheese and Lebanese Wine
BBC Modern Masters - Picasso
If you are wondering what you’ve just been reading and why, then please consult Marcus Zusak’s The Book Thief – in part of this book one of the characters (a fist-fighting Jew) creates his own picture book, which is featured in the text – made of simple sketches, it playfully interrupts the text with childlike pictures that are all the more enjoyable for their technical lack of ability. So I thought I’d have a go.
For a more accurate representation of what I saw in Wales and how beautiful it was there are some photos below.

Only just seen your comment -the singing was mostly nineties classics including Blur, Pulp and Bluetones. There were some old classics too. And of course Nuala wanted to do some Eminim rapping…
