Here's to anyone who dares to read this blog! Here I am in my handknitted winter tunic and my lovely wrinkly visage. Hello to you! I also want to introduce you to a new pony I met today who's joined two other little ponies in a field on the way into Penberth Valley, belonging to Anne who lives in Treen.
Hopefully there will be a picture of a cute red pony right here. Oh gosh that reminds me of the John Steinbeck book The Red Pony which when I was 12 or 13 had a huge impact on me. I received it as a prize for coming first in my class. My older brother John Roberts recommended it to me. He was quite radical in those days about books and politics and I loved talking to him about 'things.' Basically I couldn't understand anything about the world and at least he had something to say instead of nothing. Don't think his wife liked it later though when I turned up aged 18 with a guitar on my back just because I wanted to 'talk' to him, oh fleeting idealistic youth, gone now!
