Yes I posted a picture of one of the many trees in Crickhowell. The scent knocks you over. The balsam is well on its way here too. Masses of it along the river Usk, seeds carried along the banks and into the surrounding fields of sugar beet by the last floods.
Food was lacklustre and the beer was awful so we went to the Brittania for a decent pint of Wye Valley and a burger tonight.
It's a shame, but then again it was a few years ago and it's probably changed hands (and chefs) funnily enough, the last time we passed through there I think we ended up in the Britannia.
The bridge is closed forever I suspect. Flooded twice and flood defences won’t prevent further flooding. Such a shame after they put so much time effort and money into the last refurb.
I guess I'm a bit too tired to answer ....
Makes a change?
got that! sea to ?? cloud complete with fog horn .. no lime tho
Old forager judging by the tattered wings.
Fantastic coastal plant - one of the few trees that survives salty winds. Ours have been smothered in bees and the fragrance is quite intoxicating.
I just think the term “lost” is misleading. They weren’t “lost”. They’ve been developed for profit by unscrupulous profiteers and greedy Councils etc.
Escallonia?
