Uphill Tower



This weekend I was due to go to Prestatyn as a guest of Nick O'Hara Smith for an event called The Gathering, which is an annual celebration held by Mike Peters of Love Hope Strength and The Alarm. Unfortunately, I didn't confirm that I wanted to attend until Thursday, and Nick had to confirm his guest list on Wednesday. I was disappointed to miss the event, and to miss the opportunity to get involved with Love Hope Strength, and I wanted to avoid having another weekend of sitting at the laptop planning lessons, which I don't mind doing, but after a while it starts to crush the spirit.
From my bedroom window, I have a great view of the Old Church of St Nicholas, on the top of a hill in Uphill. I had never been up there though, so in the afternoon I went up and took some photos as the sun was going down. From the top of a hill, you really get a sense of perspective, and of your place in the world. I am so looking forward to climbing Snowdon with Love Hope Strength in the summer.
