Great Rhos & The Radnor Forest

So after another long pause in my blog I finally decided to write some more. I Haven’t really been on a lot of long walks over the past few months, probably because I’ve been quite busy getting married and honeymooning. But just last week I went on a walk in mid Wales with the usual…
