Welsh Cream Teas

Blorenge, near Abergavenny (Wales): An early start ensured that we arrived at the site by 8:20 and we were enjoying the first summer male Marmora's Warbler present for over a week soon after. Also: Tree Pipits, Ravens, Willow Warblers, Buzzards, Cuckoo (heard), Whinchats and Stonechats were also in the area. The weather was wonderful and endulging another of our passions we breakfasted locally before heading off for cream teas and the second-hand book shops at Hay-on-Wye before beginning the evening drive home, while being glued to the car radio as England v USA in the first-round of the World Cup ended 1-1.
