On the sunny, windy autumn day 11 of us went on the circular Hampstead Heath walk. The walk was repeated on the request of walkers participating in this ‘adventure’ on August 5th. The route was almost the same, but the scenery was very much different. It was Autumn spectacle! The leaves of deciduous trees and some shrubs were changing its original colour to a glorious shades of gold, Continue reading Saturday 21st October. Barbara’s Hampstead Heath walk
SATURDAY 21st OCTOBER: BENTLEY to FARNHAM
Despite dire warnings of pouring rain, weather bombs, storm Brian etc, 9 of us + one small dog screwed up our courage & went on the walk. As it happened there was very little rain & what there was came mostly at lunch time which hardly mattered. The terrifying gale & flying trees didn’t happen either which was fortunate as the walk was mostly in woodland; there was just the pleasant sound of Continue reading SATURDAY 21st OCTOBER: BENTLEY to FARNHAM
HOVE TO BRIGHTON WALK – 7 OCTOBER
A Day of Contrasts!
Rob, Rosie Anna and Solvig set off for Hove – a bit earlier than planned due to a cancelled train. I heard later that Barbara got a later train, and did the same walk although sadly we didn’t meet up.
