Margam - a belated thanks...

I spent the latter part of last week over in South Wales at the Field Studies Council's MARGAM centre.

It's a very impressive building and location.

I arrived at Port Talbot, after a long train journey from home, and decided to walk to the centre - just over 4 miles. I walked through the community inland of the steelworks which was a familiar geography case study for me for many years.

It was a reminder of the importance of visiting unfamiliar places. As I walked through the streets I listened and looked and picked up snippets of chat, mental images and sounds.  It was a contrast to the rural location of the centre itself...

Thanks to all involved in organising a very pleasant weekend.
