27th may photo - woe is me

oh dear how much bad luck can a girl have? What with the mud incident, getting lost in the woods incident and my numb foot - I am in the wars again - this time I have injured my ankle! I fell yesterday out walking on the top of a hill and I am hoping that it is just a really bad sprain and not broken. So today I am laid up in bed resting!!

I had got two Travel Bugs which wanted to be placed in caches on summits - I had 2 lovely mountains in Wales in mind that I wanted to put them in - so just to make sure that I was ready to start mountain walking again - I thought I would try out a medium sized hill on The Brieddens yesterday. I clearly am not ready to start again, as I fell and hurt my ankle very badly. Luckily I had both my walking poles with me so I could hobble down supported. I ended up leaving these 2 travel bugs at the cache on this hill - not as high as they wanted but with gorgeous views over to the Welsh Mountains that they do want to get to.

This is what I thought yesterday's photo would have been - Rodneys Pillar - not a beach photo! I am blaming Steven for my accident as he rang me when I was up here, saying he wanted to leave now to go to Bournemouth and where was I? So I had to rush to get back home and in my rush to find a quicker route back down, fell - so its all his fault! Anyway I drove 4 hours to Bournemouth and half the way back, hobbled around the beach and by the time we got home just after midnight I was in agony and my ankle was twice the size it should be. I have had it in this support overnight and the swelling has come down a bit and it is not quite so painful - I will see how the day goes but tomorrow's photo may be me in the X -ray dept. seeing if it is broken or not!!

here are some more of photos that I thought I would be posting yesterday.

not far to the top from here.

Fantastic views from the top - they never look as good through a lens.


The Welsh Mountains - where I won't be going for a while!
