We climbed back up to Hatterrall Ridge, the same Black Mountain ridge we were walking along yesterday. We hardly recognised it, as while yesterday we froze, today we were very comfortable wearing 3 less layers! Today we loved romping along the ridge and we were pleased to find wild ponies surrounding today's trig point which made for an interesting photo for our sister blog, but which we'll also share here.
We descended into Pandy, which was seemed to be a non event (no coffee shop) so we were glad we had overnighted off the route not here (sorry Pandy).
After Pandy the sun really shone and it became very hot. We felt our pace slow as a result. Just after Caggle Street we also awarded a lead paw to the tractor driver ploughing up a field crossed by the ODP making both navigation and passage difficult (the chicken manure also smelt horrible).
We reached Whitecastle just after 4.00 p.m.and called our host at The Old Rectory at Llangattock Lingoed for a lift. We knew we were in for a treat a we had walked past the accommodation earlier and even spoken to the owner as we came out of the Church next door after a welcome coffee.
Once again we have a lovely room and just look at the view we have over the gardens ...
The sequence of buildings where we are is B&B, next to the Church, next to the Pub. Perfect! We are still in the pub as we type ...
Lots of love, George, Yorkie and Gio xxx

What a difference a day makes, weather wise! Suffolk Branch's Pandy, now up in heaven, at least made the sun come out for you to compensate for his namesake's village lacking in walker amenities. Clearly a very lush B & B at the end of your day though. Good luck with the big romp today - is this the grand finale?
