This is an annual event in Llanidloes. There is a morning and an afternoon lecture session, and a nice break in the middle to get some lunch and do some shopping. There is a lot to tempt me on an occasional visit to Llani. even without the added bonus of the amazing stalls at the textile event.
I really enjoyed the lectures, but there was an awful lot to take in, so sorry the labels for my pictures are a bit vague.
