Fierce wind whenever exposed, so I'd call it w=sunny-and-windy. The overnight rain and strong wind made for far views from the 'tops': Canary Wharf and City of London towers were spotted. Mud was only a factor in a couple of places: one fenced path, one farm track. 7 lunched at The Feathers (Greene King) to mixed reviews. Some of the picnickers moved on meantime. <br />Plenty of birds at Amwell Reserve. <br />4 walked the short version. <br />Plenty of us frequented The Jolly Fisherman at the end.<br />Return trains: 16.49 to 17.49.<br />12 off the train, 1 had driven in from Welwyn, 1 must have been on a later train. She was encountered on the platform by one of the 16.49 finishers, and claimed to have walked 3/4 of the walk.
