There were 18 of us on today’s walk
I was looking forward to this one
Because it is nearly three years since we last did it
This is one of a number of cancelled walks due to Covid
There should have been 20 on the walk
But two cancelled on Sunday due to the heat
When we started the walk it was cloudy with a pleasant breeze
Probably about 22c, pretty normal for this time of year
This made for very comfortable walking
Even the climb to our picnic site was not too challenging
It was still cloudy when we arrived and almost chilly
But the sky cleared as we had our picnic
And the sun was soon shinning
It also made for better photos
As always everyone was reluctant to restart the walk
It was only a short walk to the remains of the settlement
Where I shared my very limited knowledge of the history
Then I had to find the very overgrown route off the hill
This is where my satnav earns its keep
Lovely walking back through the woods to the cars
Time taken – 5 hours
Distance – 9 km
Total ascent – 309 metres
Temperature – 22-25c
