N=10 and a dog at the station, increasing to n=14 and a dog by the time we reached Nutbourne, on a w=largely-sunny day.
Lunch at the Rising Sun. Two had a second stop at the White Horse. Just a teensy little second stop, you understand.
Pulborough Brooks Reserve had kindly put little notices by all the fungi saying what they were. This saved our resident expert a job.
Later came the climb. It was tough but we got to the top, went along a bit and come down again.
At Amberley there was a agonising choice between just enough time to catch the 17:17 or a little too much time in the Bridge Inn. Some stayed some went.
