Home!

Sunny again. I could see the faraway windmills quite clearly from the high bit on the Fosse Way. Well, I could until some white van pulled out in front of me

I think that's four days this week I've been able to see them

[zeitghost]

I can see two sets from the train:

From near Llansamlet Tesco, the windmills at Rhyd Y Fro can, on a good day, be observed.

On the drop down into Neath, from around about Skewen, the windmills at Ffynnon Oer can be observed.

These latter, despite looking as if they are on the top of the opposite mountain, are about 8 miles distant.

They are, in fact, the windmills that the ex-lustee and I spent the better part of a day walking to & from.

I'm impressed by how well the faraway ones can be seen - I'm sure I can see the stalks when it's very clear, despite them being twenty miles away.

In other news, I knocked 9s off my best time up the short sharp hill in the woods on my way home from work

Over a minute faster than lady #2 - and with a pannier full of crap

[eek]

Looks like the person I sit next to at clientco is also off to new clientco at the same time as me..

Two different people who know us reckon its going to be like an extended episode of the odd couple.... Not that that probably surprises anyone here who knows me as you probably just think I'm odd...

You can see the Ffynnon Oer windmills from Fabian Way and the Mumbles, as I observed one fine morning when making my way out of a chapel after a funeral service.

Plain as a pikestaff they were.

The windmill ******* currently wish to place a windmill on top of Drummau Mountain, a mere 75metre tall device, which you should be able to see from space.

You can see the Ffynnon Oer windmills from space if you use sat view on google maps.

In other news, they've updated the sat view of this area recently since you can see that I've been digging in the garden and the roof has disappeared from the greenhouse, so it's been done sometime since Easter.

You can find the month and year of the satellite photos in Google Earth, and go back in time to older versions, but I don't know if they offer that in Maps in the browser. You can do it with Street View imagery though
