Garthowen (A Story Of A Welsh Homestead) by Allen Raine
This is a gentle story, written and based in the 1800's. It is about one family and their homestead and the people that they meet along the way. It is an interesting view back into what "Old" Wales might have been like, the scenery and the viewpoints. There is a love story within this book but it doesn't dominate.

If you like a gentle story and historical fiction, if you like Wales, then this story is for you.

RDJ's accent
So much potential!
I have to say I was really looking forward to this film, a great cast and some good look trailers, and social media snippets. However I have to say I was very underwhelmed with the film as a whole, the voice acting was top notch, however the CGI animals at time looked like they did in the late 2000's. My biggest gripe about the whole film was the very bad supposedly Welsh accent from Robert Downey Jr, as he was the main character and in most scenes this really spoilt my enjoyment of what potentially could have been a great film.
