Raining!! After smoothies for breakfast and morning cleanup we headed for Brecon trying to find a mechanic as we were being carbon-monoxided half to death by this point. No success there or in Builth Wells, but found one in Llandrindod Wells - King of Cool Cars - specialists in old vehicles (especially American) We booked Skilpad in for 3pm. Mechanic told Chris about a nice lake just on the edge of town where we could spend the next few hours. Parked up and took the doggies for a long overdue walk, then had some lunch while we waited for 3pm.
The very pleasant and well spoken mechanic twiddled and fiddled and set the timing but was not able to find much else wrong with just a brief look like that, but it seemed to make things a bit better.
We headed for.........somewhere.......where was a big lake, and camped by the side of the lake in the mountains near fields of sheep. There was a lot of traffic going by on the other side of the lake - seemed it was a main road to somehwere that everybody wanted to be. Very beautiful place to spend the night though.
 Very confident swan on the little lake outside Llandrindod Wells - he was not afraid to hiss at Humphrey!!
 Beautiful wild camping spot
 Why would anybody pay for a campsite when you can camp like this!!
