A word of warning. The walk descriptions are not detailed enough to guide you - please take a map. The batteries never run out, and you always have a signal. Oh, And don't take left or right as gospel!

Some short wanders during January 2024

 Some of my walks during last winter were rather short and often soggy. We tended to stick to routes with decent surfaces, and preferably with a convenient cafe.

Places we visited include 

Priors Hall where we saw waxwings and a field fare in the Gulley;

East Carlton Country Park;

Weekley Hall Woods to the Fox and Peony from Geddington;

Climber Park, Nottinghamshire where we met Dan, Isaac and Rose for post Christmas catch up;

A wander round Uppingham, including a visit to the Refill Shop.

Clumber Park

Wednesday 24 June

Pre-booking, restricted numbers. We met Dan and family for a socially distanced outdoor excursion, involving a picnic and a short ride round the lake on one of the hottest days this year. These grandchildren are not very keen on hugging anyway....!

A beautiful place and a useful hallway point between Northamptonshire and Leeds. A childhood memory,  jogged by a black and white photograph, which I am not sure I still have. Memo to self!!

As usual masses of geese, but also swallows and martins. 

Photos to be added.
