On naming a new blog

Looking at the Cardiff map, our house move from Cathays to Pontcanna, and into retirement, is a move, due West. So let that suffice as an explanation for this new blog name.

We're in a side street of colourful brick and stone built terraced houses, about 250 yards down a side road, opposite Llandaff Fields, so I could have named this "Edge of Llandaff Fields".

However, there's nothing particularly edgy about the quiet corner we're moving into. It doesn't have the elegance and lawned spaciousness of Queen Anne Square, and parking can be a hassle on times, but this is our house, our family home. All the kids have lived in it, and now it's our turn. Amazingly the sun has shone daily since last weekend, conferring an unexpected element of pleasure to the bothers of uprooting.
