    Chilling Day 1

    The weather forecast had given out a very sunny and hot day, so we decided to keep of the hills and have a ramble around the country lanes n woodlands instead. In the event, the day was overcast and even had a few showers. Ah well ... for those who would like to come along, heres some pics ...
    After a short bus ride and a hours odd walk we arrived here ... our first resting place








    Then it was on foot again for another couple of hours

    This was a very pleasant site to see next ... where the wife needed to put her foot up and we just enjoyed the views. I had half a scrumpy jack






    Then it was back on foot over a bit of moorland ... the wild flowers were everywhere
