Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
At last, the weather has changed and the sun has come out. The temperature even got into double figures today, although according to the weather station it did only hit 14.6°C. It’s supposed to be nice all week as well and will make it into the high teens temperature wise. I managed to spend a...
It’s still really cold here, crazy cold in fact for the time of year. Daytime temperatures are only just breaking into double figures and with a cold wind more often than not it feels freezing. We’ve got the fire on again at the moment despite the fact that we are well into the second half...
I put the moth trap out again last night and after a couple of non-starters where we’ve had no moths at all, we finally had some. Only two mind you, but it is a start. In the box this morning were: 1x Water Carpet 1x Angle Shades Temperatures did drop to 4.2°C last night though...
The second half of our night-time science experiments didn’t go so well. After the success of viewing Saturn, we put the moth trap out. I wasn’t expecting loads of moths in the trap as it has been so cold lately, but with clear, fairly dark skies, light winds and temperatures only dropping to 6°C I...
Well, that was exciting! Whatever happened to Spring? It’s horrendous out there and much more like winter. The air temperature has been around 4-5ºC all morning and according to the weather station in our garden the wind has been at around 40-50 knots all day so far. Needless to say it is pretty wild out...

After a week or so of glorious weather, sun tans, shorts and busy bee-keeping, a sudden plunge back into temperatures below freezing, icy winds and snow on the hills just in time for the school holidays was a bit of a shock. Needless to say, this coupled with the fact that I was ill meant...
You can’t beat this time of year, especially when the weather is as good as it has been, and where better to spend it than in the garden. Everytime I go out there things seem to be coming on better than they were just a few hours prior. Plants are popping up everywhere and the...
I had a gorgeous run last night. The clocks have gone forward, the evenings are long and the weather is as good as it could be. I wasn’t supposed to go for a run but I couldn’t resist it so headed off down the beach towards Borth. The beach was quiet with only a few people wandering...
