monkey business in the brecon beacons

I still can't access my journal from my work computer - looks like a webserver related issue. This is getting rather annoying now. I've submitted a bunch of support requests, but the LJ bods don't seem to be in any rush to sort it out. Grr.

But I can still post from home, so to celebrate that fact, let's have another picspam.

A few weeks ago, I went with the family on a trip up to the Brecon Beacons to visit the Wales Ape and Monkey Sanctuary, which is rather tiny but seems to provide a good home for all the rescued monkey and apes that live there.


Since it was such a lovely day and we were in no rush, we also stopped off at our favourite spot in those parts, a little lay-by alongside one of the waterfalls that tumbles down the hillside beside the A470: a perfect spot to park up, take in the view and clamber around on the hillside...which means I have posted pictures of this view before, but here it comes again!


( More pics behind the cut )

Oh, and when I say that this is a favourite spot for my family, I'm really not kidding - when I went through all those old photos and papers for my digitisation project last year, I found photos taken at this same spot, alongside the waterfall, dating back 40 years!
