The second week was brilliant  Glad you like the photos!
The nearest village was Llanfair Caereinion - we were about 6 or 7 miles south west of there.
We did follow a black D4 along the A458, coming into Welshpool from the west, around the middle of last week. Didn't stay with it long, as it wasn't hanging about  Could it have been you?....

I live about 7 miles from Llanfair just off the 458 . My D4 is dark blue so it wasn't me.

I've just been able to get in contact with the cottage's owner and she's happy for me to let all those that have asked me have her contact details. I'll be PM'ing them to you either later tonight, or tomorrow night, workload allowing!

I've got the perfect answer to your dilemma .... Buy my 13 HSE Luxury D4 and pocket the change! That will give you more money to spend on nice things!
Perfect! Don't say that doesn't help! Taadaa!

In a previous lifetime. Student & almost a PhD, before I realised I was way out of my depth.
