We were lucky to be able to walk again before the summer break
We had to cancel the previous two Monday walks due to unusually high temperatures
I had to arrange this walk at short notice when the temperature suddenly dropped
And this morning the forecast was possible storm and chance of rain all morning
But in fact there was high cloud and fresh winds, no sign of rain at all
In fact it was ideal walking weather
And a real delight to be able to get in one last walk before the break
It was nice to welcome Les again and also his wife Helen for her first walk with the group
There were 14 of us on the walk, more than I expected with the short notice
And it was lovely to have Annie join us for a drink in Lliber square
We were able to finish the walk earlier than expected due to the cooler weather
And this was despite a detour to the dry river for our banana break
We were all sat outside the bar before noon
I was pleased that everyone came to the bar
And in fact many seemed in no hurry to leave
I left after an hour, and there were still a few going strong
It was a shame that Jan had to miss another walk due to her broken wrist
Hopefully she will be able to do our next walk in September
I will certainly miss our weekly walks over the next two months
And would like to thank everyone for their support over the past few difficult months.
