How has your week been?

Had a play with macro photography for the first time in a while, not my best work but was still fun.
- woah. Is that a pomegranite?
  
  Just an regular apple, just a young one.

It's ok thanks, was depressed earlier but feeling a lot better
- Task failed successfully!
  Glad you're feeling better. Here's to a lot more brighter days for you 😊
  
  Thanks Phobos 😃

Half term this week, so spent most of it wrestling with the kids. Lovely but exhausting.
Currently trying to fit a week's worth of work into one day, which is also exhausting but rather less lovely.

yeah alright cheers dude, how was yours?

Great! Weekend in North Wales and visited Anglesee and the isle of Holyhead. Did a lot of hiking around Snowdonia, visited a RSPB wildlife site, walked along quite a few aquaducts, ate great food and took part in a Gavin and Stacy pub quiz (I don't watch the show so I was a bit useless here). The weather was a bit on and off, but it was overall very beautiful.

You can't quite see them in the photo, but every black dot in the sea and on those cliffs are birds. Birds by the thousands. Birds maybe by the millions. It was their nesting season and these little flying penguins would swoop by clumsily over our heads every minute or so. I have never seen so many birds in my life. I've been looking online for other photos to do it justice, but nothing comes close to depicting the sheer number of them.

Portmeirion "Village"
If the name rings a bell but you can't quite place it, then play this song and take a look at the photos below.

They had beer named/numbered after the characters! I naturally had a few number 6's, and apparently went into full gushing fan mode and bought a bunch of stupidly overpriced merchandise. I am nonetheless very chuffed. It was a beautiful village, and a real peek into the mind of an amazing architect:
"Cherish the past, adorn the present, construct for the future."

- We were at Port Meirion last summer, it's a great place to visit.
  Pro Tip: park your campervan there overnight (cost not tooooo bad) and you get entry into the village before / after the visitors are allowed in, so we badically had the place to ourselves (well, maybe 10 people there)
  
  lmao, that's genius
  Did you do any walks around the Estuary? I was impessed by the greenery on some of the trails
- North Wales is gorgeous! Reminds me a lot of the Lake District. Great pics, looks like you had a great time!
  One of my favourite artists performed a DJ set on the train that goes around there, always looks stunning!

  Very much Lake District vibes, but with slate stone everywhere... I mean they literally decimated a mountain range in the pursuit of those high quality slate tiles. A lot of mournful monuments to their slate industry about what was done to their area of outstanding natural beauty
  Thanks for the DJ Marsh set, I'll listen to him when I'm working!

I’m just loving Spring time. Especially now that nature has really bloomed, it is just wonderful to go out. See what I mean:
- Spring has to be my favourite season. Everything turns green and lush again, the evenings are getting longer and it's warm but not too hot. Fantastic pic!
