31 Oct - Moto Camp Wales

 Good morning reader

The ride up the Wales yesterday was fine, and the rain held off all day.    I stopped for lunch but had






just missed the breakfast menu so I had to settle for ham, egg and chips!! and tea of course.

Made it to the camp site which has now been taken over by a “group”.   All very clean and tidy with excellent showers .   Not and lot to do here and it gets dark at 5pm - so a very early night in the tent having a read of my latest book.   The wind and the rain started at about 9pm - and what a blower it was, good job with those storm guy ropes.   

Early rise this morning the rain had stopped for a while and a 6am hot shower was really good.  On the road for 8am and the wind is very gusty this morning.   I road the few miles the the Honey Cafe at Bronllys but it doesn’t open til 9am - so I ride the the nearest petrol stop to top up.   I think this was the first fuel stop I have used in the UK where you have to pay for fuel first before you can use the pump - i.e like the USA where you have to guess how much fuel you need!!!  

I’m now sitting at the Honey cafe with an early pot of tea awaiting breakfast.   It’s a tuff life on the road
