Took the day off work for a photo-shoot of my exploration of the land around Swansea Airport. Found numerous reminders of the old WW2 RAF base that was once situated here too. If you want details of what you are looking at, you will have to wait a month for the publication of Explore Gower - Remnants of War. Thank's to L8 for the company (and sorry about the bog I led us into). Oh, we also heard a cuckoo!

Last Day
Monday, May 29, 2023
Last day of our 1st holiday of the year. I've ticked everything off on my To Do list for May so today is just a day for chilling and acclimatising myself to the thought of returning to the office tomorrow. Still, I'm off again soon enough for a day-long reccy of somewhere I have long since wanted to explore - watch this space...

Wind Turbine Roundup
I don't know why people hate wind turbines. These majestic constructions are stunning, and I have always enjoyed visiting them.

RoW Progress
Tuesday, May 23, 2023
This week's shoot for RoW has now been completed. The introduction has also been written. I've also added more photographic content to the book. Gower WW2 remains covered in my new Gower book so far include those found at Clyne, Whiteford Sands, Swansea Bay and the watchtower out on the Burry Estuary near Weobley Castle. Oh, and I also finished another GNS book! I haven't yet decided on what the next book will be on this years GNSathon...

The Vampire in Chains Cover Design |
3/10. The second draft of Vampire in Chains has been completed, and a publication date set. The next five weeks will be devoted to my third book on the Gower Peninsula, which will be titled Remnants of War and has a publication date set in stone. I will be visiting a few locations along the old 'Gower Stop' line today on the Burry Estuary, with another scheduled Gower shoot pencilled in for May 31, when I will be spending the day sourcing the World War II relics located around Fairwood Common. With this morning's update completed, it's time for me to crack on...
Oops. But a project is a project:
