Water, water everywhere we want to walk. This week was a shortened version of a popular walk.
Walking from Thurlaston church down to the ford on the way to the ford via Normanton fisheries.
Daffodils are still out but past their best.
Not a bad day but the sky was still full of grey clouds.
Turning down towards the fishing lakes.
Lambing season was in full baaaa !!!!.
Fun and games at a cattle crossing with a flooded path.
Walking on water.
Down by the ford which had subsided since we'd done a reccy a couple of days ago.
On the way back more interesting safe ways across the flood.
A cuddly threesome.
In need of a little TLC.
After the walk we called in at the Thurlaston Rural Centre for coffee tea and cake. The Rural Centre was taken over by a family at the beginning of the year and what a change - a great selection of plants, lots of interesting bric a brac, clothes etc in the outlets and a superb cafe. It's buzzing!
In the evening we met at The Holly Bush for our ten year dinner bash. Everybody thought it was such a good do we could make it an annual event.
A short speech from the founder member of our group. Well received and a much deserved thank you - we wouldn't be here without you.
Cheers!
