View from the loft dinnertime. Haven't had much snow but I suppose you don't in Devon, though my lad was so excited it snowed and he could play out in it. Even though we ain't had much out in the sticks where we are the roads were treacherous

Swings and roundabouts, great spot in warm weather, lovely flying spot for the birds ... the drawback is of course all the percys; and sparrowhawks outnumbering the crows, though the Buzzards do help chase them away sometimes ... no facilities, difficult getting water there when the roads are dodgy there is no water supply or anything! But wouldn't swap it, compared to Maxwell and his hawk problems it's paradise even though there are at least half a dozen percy pairs within about a 6/7 mile radius, one pair mile away as the percy flies in the local quarry!

It was fantastic, even when the snow stopped it didn't thaw. We used to come down Caeracca bog on the old sledge at an incredable speed. The Blizzards were frightening. I remember a picture in the local rag the Merthyr Depressed at the time of thema man at Dowlais Top standing on top of the snow with a 14'pole searching for cars by p ushing it in to he snow and a photo of one of the old steam engines stuck on top near Penganddu with just the top of the funnel sticking out. Drifts at the front of the house up to the bedroom windows. Helicopters at one stage dropping bread in to the village. Our school was shut for weeks because the pipes were all frozen.

Hi Al your right about the old winters great for missing school, but the first year i moved birds to Sunny Rhigos in 1981, we had a hell of a job getting into the lofts ended up breaking a window and feeding the birds in the loft on about 4 foot of snow and our aivery was in the farmers field lol wer,nt laughing at the time mind.
