Waking on the the Sunday morning, at a very crazy early time, was not the plan. But the wind I was suffering kept me awake for most of the night. Somehow the door / flap to the improvised greenhouse had come adrift, and was flapping about like some form of demented giant Sandhill Crane displaying to all and sundry.
So a decision was made to chase the clouds and get to North Wales for a possible on shore gale!! arriving intact and busting to get at it a search was undertaken, and if there was a Gale she would have been from Merseyside on a walk!!! However the Snowbuntings were there, and as they usually do, performed like seasoned artists, PS. Dont bother with the ASDA cafe if you want more than a butty thing..
So a couple from the hundreds, talk about a lead finger!!!
