Happy Birthday, Romas.
Our youngset, Romas is 33 today. He's had a good year for his music and last winter went on a two week tour of the country with the band CLKWK. They've played more gigs this year and their music has been played a number of times on the radio. All this is in addition to carrying on working full-time and he has also been promoted within the IT dept.
Here it has been mainly overcast and not quite as warm as last week. In the morning we drove over to Mach to meet our friends to practice Welsh in the library. We are allowed to bring coffee and bless them they presented us with a box of halloween fondant fancies which along with some cookies that I brought made for a veritable feast. We finished translating another novel written for learners and went over last week's zoom class. One of the features of Welsh is the changing of the initial letter, of certain words after feminine nouns or after many prepositions or in other cases. This is known as mutation and there are at least 3 different kinds. A lot to get your head around and we're only using one set so far. That led to a lot of laughter with much checking of our dictionaries to see if words were masculine or feminine (loaf is feminine but bread is masculine?) and me making a big M with my arms whenever somebody forgot to mutate a word. I find humour is a great way to remember things. This afternoon I've just pottered about while Peter was out on rowing club business.
And now for a few more photos from yesterday's walk.
These funnel mushrooms were growing in a ring (15-20ft) around an old oak tree.
An interesting house in Penrhyn-coch.
The friendly horse and the fence that we stepped over.
A touch of autumn colour.
