I may have l...A couple of comments about the walk:<br /><br />I may have lost some fitness over the last few months, but I would describe this walk as "moderately strenuous in places" rather than "a gentle walk" and would upgrade it to a 5 out of 10.<br /><br />I would say it's essential to have a compass, in a couple of places. Fortunately, I'd downloaded a compass app the night before.<br /><br />It was a great walk, though!Davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13665817.post-64033566191062900032020-10-26T00:34:06.262+00:002020-10-26T00:34:06.262+00:00n=18, maybe more.All dutifully dispersed before th...n=18, maybe more.All dutifully dispersed before they could be counted.Despite torrential rain at dawn, we had w=sunshine-and-blue-skies throughout the day with one very brief shower after lunch. This is a beautiful walk.The autumn colours were at their best with infinite shades of yellow, gold and brown transforming the woods and colouring the landscape from afar. Most people stopped at the Pink and Lily for lunch, some having a drink outside and one or two ordering food. Service was friendly and efficient and they tolerated some of us eating our sandwiches at some tables in their car park.<br />Three of us had tea at The Golden Cross and one got some cake to take away. Efficient service and reasonable prices. One group caught the 3.51pm train, others the 4.51. Hopefully everyone finished before dark.
