Along The Line, the otherway

Along The Line, the otherway

Another trip on the bikes. This time we head in the other direction, toward Cwmaman.

I'm more interested in panoramics on this trip.

The Phurnacite was a disgusting smoke spewing smokeless fuel plant. Gone 15 years or so now. There's still scars however.

bradley in the long grass with doc leaf

Bradley was caught on his thumb with a stingy nettle, here he's muttering to himself about super human powers, I think, while holding the doc leaf tight on his sting. He walked in the side on The Line, in this long grass, for ages, really holding us all up.

He kept the leaf all afternoon. Later Nanna asked if he wanted to take it back to Telford, so attached to it was he.
