A close call. We've had a lot of rainfall this past week. Whilst in a local restaurant this lunchtime a tree fell down over my old car and hit the cars opposite. No damage very luckily! 🤞

@AdamBishop I used iPlayer with a VPN to view the series. I enjoyed the series actually, wasn't expecting to. I think because they did a lot of things in the Granada/Sevilla region

The clouds had come in as we headed back down to the cars from Morrón Hornillo. Suddenly the mists cleared and a strange horizontal window opened up below the vast expanse of grey skies

Even on the bad days it can still pay to "get out there" hiking. You never know! Very high winds over the higher mountains today so we headed down to the Guajares Valley and hiked a circular route bet...
