Thought the Don Henley song might be a good one for today even if the weather has been indifferent. I think Mark Cavendish is the boy of this summer-what an amazing  comeback!!! I certainly didn’t see that coming did anyone? For those of you who don’t know who is he is a cyclist and is closing in on the all time Stage Wins in the Tour de France. The picture above is one that has been in my blog before- I took it a few years ago on Caerphilly Mountain during the Tour of Britain.

More photos at the bottom from my garden. We have been pleased we have seen both male and female Blackcaps this week . Female below taken from an upstairs window.
