View off Esgair Cwmowen on a wet afternoon in summer There is some sunshine licking about through small gaps in the cloud base, let us hope we soon get some. The morning started well, then turned wet fast, then eased and got wetter in turns and now seems to be improving in line with Met Office forecasts. Which is good.
