A sunny day to start February

It’s nice to see the days lengthening, and today was sunny so I went for a little drive around …

River Tywi from Cilsan bridge, looking towards Carmarthen …

Dryslwyn and the castle (what remains of it)
from Penrhiwgoch …

Zoomed in a bit …

Snowdrops in the hedgerows …

Lots of fields near Nantgaredig are still under water but I didn’t take any photos, the A40 is too dangerous to stop along it.

we had dull damp weather today so not very pleasant out here.

Lovely photos Hywel, and yes, it’s great to have sunshine and blue sky again. Good for our drive down to Poole today to meet my brother too πŸ™‚.

A little bit of sunshine does wonders, doesn't it Hywel!
Lovely photos.

I enjoyed to see your photos Hywel. Looks like the spring arrived at your place. We had a bunch of snow yesterday and this morning here on Vancouver Island. Luckily it is not freezing so I hope it will disappear soon.

Sorry Hywel missed this lovely blog...the river Twyi looks very picturesque as do the other photos.

Thank you all for your comments,
I hope the snow has cleared now Klahanie.

Unfortunately we had more snow during the nigh Hywel.
Everything around is under the snow. It actually looks beautiful from inside but it is freezing right now (-2 at the moment) but I have plenty of plants to look after inside.
Freezing is foretasted for the whole week. I do not like that!

They're lovely photos Hywel. So good to see the snowdrops, another few weeks and the daffies will be out.🌞
I've crocus just on the verge of opening too.

Hywel, I've tried to send you a pm but aren't able to as adverts are covering half my screen.
Could you give me some advice on how to get rid of them please?
I remember you helping another member a while ago. I'd be very grateful if you could.

Hi Janey, I didn't actually help anyone, all I did was say I've installed adblockers
Here are the 'things' (Sorry I don't know the proper words)

https://adblockplus.org/adblock-plus-edge
https://getadblock.com/en/edge/

Just download them, they are free and block all adverts. They may ask if you want to upgrade to a paying version but the free ones stop ads so I've just got those.

I have 3 or 4 programmes that block all ads in my FireFox browser. They are all free & I don't see ads.
