Today was a good day to rest. The weather forecast showed rain for the next few days with the heaviest downpoars expected today so, while camped so close to the town, and in such a pretty spot, why not give that tortured body a break and enjoy the location for a while. Hawling that heavy backpack up, down and across the Black Mountains yesterday has made Josh aware of some muscles that were not taxed so much on flatter ground. A day of browsing the very bookish Hay-on-Wye, replenishing supplies and relaxing with a copy of "One Red Paperclip" was just what was required. The weather turned out to be drier than predicted, with just a few showers, but the temperature was rather chilly. I hope that Josh is keeping warm. He is starting to look quite weatherbeaten!
Tomorrow's goal is to reach Knighton, or nearby, so I hope he is getting a good night's sleep tonight.
Miles travelled today: (None that count.)
