Today’s walk was done last Saturday 29th. Since we had the car out for a wood delivery, we decided to pop into town, and walk a bit of Forest Drive, from the Northern end.

A brief Wednesday Walk

Hello people, I can’t believe I forgot to do my Wednesday Walk post yesterday! I’ve been pretty good with it. I decided not to share the reservoir walk as I had this really eventful one recently.  Lots and lots of photos.
