Winter is closing in and getting it’s claws into the last of the year. A day of decent weather presented itself and I didn’t want it to go to waste. I’ve been making use of the train out to Bangor and the the local bus services out across Angelsey. So today I though I would have a test flight out to the market to of Llangefni to see what the […]
