Three of us on the train were joined by one driver so #4 on this #cloudy-muggy day. Three of us had walked yesterday too, doing all the walks between us. One had a good roast dinner at the Red Lion and the others had coffee or more at the Fern, where the pizza man was lamenting the cancellation of a cricket match (did the players cry off to watch England?). In the afternoon we split up with two of us going over the top of Black Down and the others short-cutting; but I met one on the platform having been thwarted in his early getaway by a delayed train. Well worth coming out on this pleasant day, thanks for posting.
