The dawdles continue. I’ve found a further series of short walks – which of course are still permitted. The details and dates are below with a bit of a gap in the middle due to a holiday. To reassure anyone wanting to join in, it is not a mountain trek, we walk at a speed convenient for all – including pauses to look at the scenery, flowers, buildings – or to simply take a break. They have generally been an about an hour and range from 1.22 to 2.45 miles. Most of the small group had a celebratory cup of coffee at the end of the last walk to mark the end of the first ‘season’.
It isn’t a mountain trek but the surface isn’t as smooth as a newly laid tarmac road surface, more like a pavement or canal path surface. The weather, with one exception that threatened drizzle, has been excellent. I think everyone has been to at least one place they’d not visited before…. and there’s more below. All welcome.
