ross-on-wye

We visited this lovely part of the world for half term, with a converted school-house cottage to hold us and keith's parents.

What a beautiful place! It was cold, (snow on a couple of days) but beautiful.


We were on the edge of the Forest of Dean and our highlights were:

  • the pancake race in Ross




  • Puzzlewood (visited by Tolkien, and surely the source of inspiration for Lord of the Rings)





  • Tintern Abbey and a great walk towards the Devil's Pulpit - we never did find it though!
  • the Dr Who Exhibition in Cardiff.

And this last picture is from Ledbury... we stopped for a homecooked pie in the Prince of Wales and I found the MOST beautiful shop full of Danish delights - fabric, cushions and toys. We have a new spotty orange cushion plus a metre of furnishing fabric with a brilliant house design for me to update things in the lounge.
