WALES - NEW YEARS ! - Monday 29th December 2008 - Saturday 3rd January 2009

For new years this year we all decided to go to Amsterdam, due to credit crunching issues and a general lack of money all round, we moved it to a small barn in Wales. Cwmpiban is a converted barn on the side of a valley surrounded by fields and trees. It is SO far in the middle of nowhere that there is no mobile reception of any kind, AWESOME!

The barn is near Rhulen, and its main town is Builth Wells.

Builth is a small town with all the essentials. It is one of those places that has a really slow pace of life. It still has independant local butchers and grocers.

We had a week of relaxing, taking photos, eating and drinking. Also Singstar, just to feed the Karaoke Hunger that had developed with no local bars to release the withdrawl.

Sean began had 365 Days of Meat challenge, more of it can be seen here:- http://365daysofmeat.blogspot.com/ .

Im not going to write a full and in depth blog about this trip as we didnt actually do a great deal but we all took some awesome pictures!
