Hardly comparable

I've just been online and found this image of what the last lot of storms has wreaked on Aberystwyth.

Destruction: A general view of the damaged promenade in Aberystwyth, Ceredigion. A major cleanup operation has started today in the Wales town

It hardly seems possible that this is the same street that we photographed in October on a clear blue-sky day as we were leaving.  Other photos on the DM website show those windows on the left of my photo now boarded up - I am presuming that debris thrown up by the storm must have smashed them.


Just makes me think.

It is always so sad seeing photos of a spot you visited in sunny days after destruction has wreaked havoc. I have just been looking at the awful helicopter crash on Cley Marshes - we were there back in August. God comfort and strengthen all those who are suffering this winter
