I have visions of your wife rolling her eyes when you announce you are off for a "short stroll'' ;-) lovely video as ever - I really need to visit Pembrokeshire
Really liked those stones John, that's the kind of stuff we look for up here....great find. Always enjoy being lost in the woods...enjoy the rest of your wee break.
+Jag Betty thanks Jag. You have loads of great finds - it's a great experience eh. Back in London now after a fantastic week, ready for a more urban ramble now
I have been lost in the woods a few times with no map and that feeling of relief when you know where you are is amazing did you feel it john, great video
Sometimes the unexpected can be what one needs and this turned to be a great walk, Beautiful surrounding to be in even if one has lost their way. Some of my fondest memories are ones of my unexpected adventures. I truly enjoy all your walks, thank you for sharing.
Fishguard an amazing place , the port was built by the GWR to Brunel's design as a fast link to Ireland expresses used to come from Paddington to connect with the boats, sadly all gone now only local trains, one question Puddle of Infinity,great music,but I can't find any information......
That was a great holiday - thanks for the info. I don’t know anything about Puddle of Infinity, the music is from the TH-cam Audio Library, I think some musicians create names to upload music to the Library
Thers an interesting pub in newquay Jon and the cast of under milk wood including Richard Burton went there there are photographs all around the walls xxxx
Thanks Norma - I've just got back and going to watch the film now. The house we stayed in was used in the film as the location for the pub, we had a steady stream of people peering through the window
Glad you managed to get out alive! Had similar experiences myself,recklessly setting off into uncharted wilderness with my appalling sense of direction & no serviceable GPS-sometimes in midwinter. Thank heavens for the homing instinct of my springer spaniel! Sorry to hear about that farmer.If that was unnerving,don't ever ramble up here in Cumbria: everyone's like that-people in shops,on public transport,hospitals,on the street,neighbours... It takes some time to build up a thick skin ;-) Gem of a film
Born and bred in Essex/London but now living in Wales. It is not unusual here for footpaths to be badly maintained and even fenced off. Lots of footpaths near me but not many actually passable. Welcome to my world!
Hey John, That is a beautiful film. I started watching it quite casually but soon it had me held in a magically fascinated way. Its structure, or maybe rather unfolding, is so powerful, moving from Fishguard town into the wildwood and your wanderings there, then on to to the stories of the stones. There is perfect balance, emerging over time, of environment centred free flow consciousness and concisely expressed information on prehistory. Fabulous. Dave Binns
Well John, it is far better meeting up with Teddy Bears to share your clotted cream with, rather than being surprised by, Goblins, Pheasants or Trolls !!!! that you have met up with by accident on other Walks. , if I was you I would have reported that very arrogant disrespectful rude farmer to the police and told him to --- off and not come back. You should get the police to trace him and demand an apology, I would have and I do not put with jumped up idiotic twatts like him lightly John, Peter,
superb .. Wales is an epic country for hiking in all areas. Thanks for this.
Beautiful scenery!

+mark williamson exactly Mark, she was quite shocked when I returned at 10pm with 2 tubs of cream

Please more of these peaceful walks away from traffic noise , would love to see you walk the Wiltshire ridgeway (fingers crossed).
Lovely video :)

I did Gary, it was that point when I waded across the stream into that field - marvellous feeling

Thanks Darrell, and you're quite right, the unexpected is often the most rewarding.

John. Was it single cream you initially bought. And it took so long to get back it had become clotted ( cream) ?
+John P Lynch ha, that'd been right John. In the end I got home 3 hours late with double and clotted cream

beautiful video.... amazing where the need for cream can lead.
Thanks Paul - maybe because it was clotted cream, which I did get btw much to the delight of the family who'd given up
Wow that was an adventure! What an awful man you met, and I've got to know, what happened with the cream 😂?

Thanks Ellis - it was mad had a simple evening stroll turned into an epic

Thanks so much Dave - look forward to our next expedition
You lucky man Jon spent years in this area and cardigan beautiful part of the world xx
It's so beautiful Norma. We had a lovely day at Newport as well, would love to walk the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path
John Rogers would love to see a film of that would take days though x
Amazing cromlech-6000 years old and still there-burials were built to last then
It was an incredible landscape John
So you did not meet the Teddy Bears coming out to play in the Woods and have a picnic with them ha haa ha !!!! ????.
