Spectacular weather for our last walk of 2021
Started
off with a cool 9c, but soon climbed to 21c
Felt just like a really good summer day in the UK
We should have had 11 on this walk
But three cancellations reduced it to 8
This included Saskia on her first walk with the group
There are 40 members at present
But about one third live in the UK
And many of the rest have other commitments at Christmas and New Year
We have lost a lot of members since Covid hit in March 2021
But fortunately have built up the membership again despite the restrictions
And it’s nice to introduce new members to old favourite walks
This is a particularly good walk for new members
It is very local to most of them, but not a walk they could find on their own
It also has the advantage that they can do parts of it on their own
A familiar spot featured in most posts of this walk
And a little sad that so many familiar faces are missing
New restrictions meant we had to wear face masks in the village
The square was packed, but we managed to find a couple of tables
Stats
Time taken – 5 hours
Distance – 13 km
Total ascent – 370 metres
