Headline - A day inside the Reform UK machine set to be a political force in Wales whether you like it or not.


Not a bad lunch stop.

Have had a really peaceful walk this morning, from Llyn Brianne reservoir over the border in Carmarthenshire. Currently sitting on a ledge outside Twm Sion Cati's cave in Gwenffrwd-Dinas Nature Reserve. Apparently Twm Sion Catti was a trickster, highwayman and folk hero who hid in the cave. I expect he would have appreciated a cheese and leek pasty too.

It was quite a climb up. I may be bum shuffling down in places (not a great head for heights).

Landscape photo of a view through the tops of trees - mostly beech, oak and birch - from a high point on the side of a hill (a small cave out of shot behind the camera). The view is along a steep sided valley, a river rushing along the bottom and a glimpse of white waterfalls. The rock-strewn slope to the right is catching the sun whereas the woods on the left are in shadow. The overall tones are red-brown of autumn leaves and bracken. The sky is blue (hurrah!) with a light veil of white cloud.


Tory AS/MS Natasha Asghar: “I’m sure my constituents in Caerphilly would rather that this money was, in fact, spent on more nurses or doctors or, in fact, anything else that would, indeed, be to the local authority’s benefit”.

Question for Ms Asghar: do local authorities in #Cymru employ vast numbers of doctors and nurses?

Spoke at a dear friend’s funeral this morning - she was so funny, ingenious, rude and lovely. This tiny community is so much poorer without her. Knackered now. #cymru


From earlier this week - Cymru, politics and the English Home Counties.

Typical.

Tory shadow Welsh Secretary is from Sussex.

It was a proper grey day today…not damp, and neither cold nor warm, just grey nothingness. But it lent a sepia tone to the autumn colours.

I headed up to the Teifi Pools on the western edge of the Cambrian Mountains. The pools and reservoirs are the source of several rivers, including the Teifi, which I followed back down. I’ve missed wide open spaces recently and this was just what I needed.

I finished with a stroll around the ruined abbey of Strata Florida.

A photo of a mountain stream - Nant Egnant - rushing over grey boulders. The steep valley sides are carpeted in red-brown bracken and dark green heather nearer the tops.  In the centre of the frame, crossing the river, is a wooden foot bridge. A veteran oak tree stands behind on the right, its leaves turning a red-golden brown. The sky behind is a flat, featureless grey.
Landscape photo of a view across boggy ground, an expanse of golden brown marsh grasses. In the centre is the limb of a large lake - Llyn Teifi, the source of the Afon Teifi, the surface of the water is a matt silver and pewter. A ridge of mountains rises up behind, under grey skies.
A landscape photo of a view down the upper Teifi valley. The mountain stream divides the landscape down the middle, red-brown bracken on the steeper slopes to the right, and golden brown grass and gorse on the left in the flatter, boggier valley bottom. The stream curves out of view to the right. Green hillsides rise up beyond. 
In the middle distance on the left, a few sheep eye me warily from a slight rise. Again, the sky is a flat greyness.
Photo of a rounded arched entrance doorway into the ruined Cistercian abbey of Strata Florida, the crumbled stone walls ending just above the arch. Through the doorway is a glimpse of the ruined interior walls, surrounded by  short grass, and of the hillside beyond. The leaves on trees growing in and around the abbey are turning green to gold


Another of those (for Keith) embarrassing socialists leaves the Labour (In Name Only) Party.
