I had a lovely walk through the community garden at Parc Dewi Sant yesterday. 🌱

I saw the various plants and vegetables being grown, and bumped into these friendly locals. 🐝 A lovely place to spend some time in nature.

Carmarthen Men's Circle met yesterday at Cynefin Health Hub. 🔥

We gathered around the fire and practiced some fire starting methods, had some hot drinks and biscuits. It definitely felt like Autumn was taking hold, but with good company amd a warm hearth it was an enjoyable day, and some good time spent doing well-being in nature.

Thank you to and the Cynefin Health Hub for such a wonderful location amd support for us to be able to do this.

If you want to join us, all men are welcome, contact Peter

Flint knapping in the woods today with Dan.

🏹 I made a glass arrow head shape
🪨 Dan made one too, from flint

I found it easier to get some nicer flakes today and noticed the difference between Dan's copper tools and my rocks and antler. The copper tools were much nicer to use.

Getting there slowly a long skill to learn and get good at, but good fun.

Any constructive feedback welcomed!

Dan Ponting you we're missed, hope to see you soon.

❤️ Thank you to my family for making it so special and some wonderful thoughtful gifts.

More photos to come. 📷

Today we relaxed and caught up under the shade of the trees. Had a walk around the site and looked at some tree ID. 🌳
