We have now spent several weeks here in Wales and I have slowly got used to the way of life; it is very laid back and calm, the days are quiet, mostly all we can hear from our cottage is the running water of the stream below us and the different bird songs and calls. Last night we watched a buzzard circling above the trees, obviously looking for its supper. We have been eating our dinner on the decking most evenings and, with a glass of wine, watch the sun go down; as soon as the sun starts its quick descent behind the trees the atmosphere changes and we go from the soft warmth of the early evening to a sudden chill of night time. Within the space of two or three minutes the trees become grey and the birds stop their calls, it reminds me of the solar eclipse in 2009 when we all gathered with our special glasses to watch the moon cover the sun. This is our cue to leave the balcony and head inside.
