Changeable. A short walk yesterday. It was windy, it rained a little, it snowed a little. Then the sun came out 🚶🌤️

Grim Halloween weather this afternoon – gloomy with wind and rain – so I’ve watched _The Haunting_ 🎃👻🏚️

> Located between the streets of Odos Myrtidiotissas and Odos Apollonos are over 100 small houses with distinct barrel-shaped roofs. Their shape was born out of the need to build quicky with limited materials in the aftermath of the 1956 earthquake, to provide shelter for those whose homes had been destroyed.

Staying at the Cardiff Bay Premier Inn for a night. Nice view from our room but weather not so good!

A circular window view from a room shows a waterfront scene with a red brick clock tower, nearby buildings, and a Ferris wheel against a cloudy sky. The foreground includes a cushioned bench with a backpack and a coat.

Got absolutely soaked through walking the mile to Aberdare station this morning. Unexpected downpour, no umbrella, no coat 🌧️ 😡

Now sitting, very damp, on the train to Cardiff for a day’s cricket 🚉 🏏

Luckily the weather is forecast to be better in Cardiff than in the Valleys 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Found walking 🚶

A metal mesh gate in front of an abandoned, overgrown facility surrounded by trees. The pathway inside is weathered, and there's a sign with some text on the gate. Tall grass and wild plants are visible beyond the gate.

A wooden shelter built with logs is situated in a forest. The ground around the shelter is littered with trash, including plastic bottles and cans. Tall trees surround the area, and sunlight filters through the branches.

An old, beige bathtub placed outdoors, filled partially with dark, stagnant water. It has rust stains and debris like twigs and leaves, and is surrounded by grass and dry branches.
