The Conwy Classical Music Festival - one of the largest free events of its type in Wales - is now on Twitter. Give them a follow @conwyclassical


625 miles from Birsay, the setting sun is lighting the clouds as the @OrkneyFolkFest livestream plays @squeezyjohn and his band, accompanied by a glass of pink wine. (Allegedly he and I were at the same university at the same time, but have no memory of each other).

The road from Caernarfon to Rhyd Ddu is passable, though a few trees blown down onto it and a few drifts in places. The snow is a bit like what you get if mashed potato meets gravy 😖 #walessnow #walesslush

Some modest drifts, but the fields are green even round Llyn Cwellyn in Snowdonia, but some quite impressive breakers on the lake itself. #snowwales

Not much snow, but wind has brought down a large tree on power lines just south of Waunfawr in Gwynedd. Engineers say most of the area from south of Waunfawr towards Llyn Cwellyn has no power, could take rest of the day to restore it. #walessnow (ish)

This year's pancakes: lemon and sugar, flambéed with 10yo Glen Grant; golden syrup and cinnamon, flambéed with 15yo Springbank. Both rather fine.
