'Slavery by another name. Once again, Ms Bryn has used fictional characters in a factual environment to highlight the path many trod to gain a voice beyond their simple life and arduous labours. This is not a tale for the faint of heart. The imagery and attitudes depicted are stark reminders of the ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’ who continue to make up the population of our world.
Another compelling read by this great author.' http://books2read.com/GiveUsThisDay #books #fiction #socialhistory #Wales #Welshvalleys

I went up the mountain to paint this morning, but then I got rained on and had to turn back, so you will have to make do with photographs instead. Added a bonus dog that came over to check me out.

Kudos to all the runners who braved the elements yesterdays on the #RunWalkCrawl Winter Celtic Trail series in the heart of the Welsh valleys. Here they are coming in to CP5 on the Rhigos ❄️⛰ #trailrunning #trailrunningwales #welshvalleys
