The clocks have gone back and there are only a few weeks left before Christmas. All the more reason to start enjoying some seasonal fare, getting out and about is fun even during the shorter days when venues light the log burners and get snug inside whatever is going on outside.

Half-term is almost upon us and it is time to let your hair down and have some fun. So what is there to do?

As an activity for the wider population Nordic walking it is not much more than 20 years old. Prior to this a similar activity was engaged in as an exclusive advanced training trick for keen cross country skiers who wanted to get a head start on dry land before the snows came.

Life as a tour guide will always open up days of interest and sometimes challenge and I wanted to begin to share with you some of the days out which a tour guide maybe asked to deliver.

The lovely Stackpole Inn is waiting to welcome you this Easter.

As many of you may know 2016 is being promoted by Visit Wales as the " Year of adventure"

I was really priveliged this summer to have been given a tour of the rocky outcrop at Craig Rhosyfelin by the famous archaeologist Mike Parker Pearson.

Let's begin at the beginning - prehistoric caves, magnificent burial monuments, stone circles and archaeological stories of Stonehenge. In Pembrokeshire we are fortunate to have so many ancient prehistoric sites still visible for visitors to stand in awe and to reflect upon how life was like so long ago and what these ancient monuments meant to them.

Just to introduce I am a tour guide, educator and storyteller and over the coming weeks, months and I do hope years, I will be sharing insights and stories of my experience of a lifetime of discovery of the people and places of Pembrokeshire.

One of the best ways to see the wonderful wildlife around the beautiful Pembrokeshire coast is by boat, and one of the best times of year to do that is early autumn. There are plenty of organisations offering trips. Get out there and see the baby seals!
