Tuesday 25th February.
Bright, sunny, with a cold wind.
Marta and I walked just a couple of miles - The first one done at a fair lick along the Southern Gullet path, which was wet in places, then round the estate, returning close to the Lake, where we saw one coot.
We met a friend, Rita, in the cafe, so today was more a social occasion than serious exercise.
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.
Monday 24th January 2022.
With Kate, Maureen and Norma . Exploring the newly built estate with its playgrounds and café. Only 3 miles.
