Corley Moor - Holly Berry End 4 miles Wed 20th Feb

We had a good walk on a cold day led by David.  I think it was my muddiest walk ever. Admittedly, you could not always see the mud but that was because it was under 6 inches of water. No-one drowned! So the muddy boots award is passed on to David.

Muddy Boots Award to Bob and Sylvia!


That was muddy! I think it appropriate after recent walks that we introduce a muddy boots award.
I hereby present the muddy boots award to Bob and Sylvia! It was hard to beat Peter W's and Peter B's walks for mud but they did it!

Welcombe Hills 3.6 miles - Wed 6th Feb

It was a good walk and morning out and we did not lose anybody. I had not realised that the path from the car park to the Welcombe hills existed.
