Bendy ODP Day 10 - Rest day in Hay-on-Wye

Slept in and late breakfast 😁. Today is market day so naturally we had to have a look around there. It also gave us a chance to do some post office stuff. As usual I was not overly enthralled by markets so I did the washing in a nearby laundromat (we had quite a bit to do and I wanted to start the next phase of the walk with well washed socks etc).

Later we did a bit of wandering around the town buying new waterproof over pants (my current ones are too difficult to remove over my boots) and a new and more robust 'Clancy' (overflow bag).

We filled in a bit of time late afternoon with a short walk along the River Wye through an area known as 'The Warren'. Lovely walk.

The four of us had dinner at a pop-up pizza place in an art gallery; good pizza and great idea even if they do only open on Thursday nights. 

We finished the night off with a couple of games of Cluedo which was fun. (Gail won both games but it was a close competition. 

The weather for tomorrow ours rain and more rain so Twitchy and I will get soaked on the next leg of the walk😤☔
