<p>Well it has been an intense and busy week! We've told our story in an Iron works, an abbey, and several castles, in the rain, sleet and snow, thunder and lighting, gale force winds and the odd sunshine. Despite the arduous weather it has been rather beautiful. I have a new found appreciation for the country side and history. Im an thouroughly enjoying this tour around wales and have seen some amazing places. It seems my enjoyment is emulated by our varied audiences, from 160 excitable school kids to an cold and wet audience of 4 children and 2 adults. Everyone has seemed to enjoy and be suprised by what we have to offer. Now we are on too the final leg of our journey and are venturing up north. So if any of you live there, or are taking a trip up, please try and find the time to pop allong and see where Gwions adventure takes him. If you cant make it then just wish us luck.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Bye bye for now!</p>

<p></p>
<p>This afternoon we plan to finish devising/blocking the piece which seems rather remarkable. The only things that are concerning me now are, the weather and the children. Both incredible unpredictable. But theres no point in worry about things we cant control. Today we're stuck down in the basement with isnt the most uplifting place but were trying not to let it get us down. Will be nice to get out side soon, eventhough it will probably be raining! . Despite this I am having tremendous fun and hope all you that come do too!</p>
<p></p>
<p>Please, Please, Please do come see, bring allong your little brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, neice and nephews!</p>
