Wet Walk

First long walk of the year, started St Swithun's Way http://www3.hants.gov.uk/longdistance/st-swithuns-way.htm

It was tipping down with rain, sort of appropriate really. A true test of wet-weather apparel and mine passed with only a score of 7 out of 10 BUT it does get invited back for next weekend's performance, which will be 10 miles around Hertford. For fellow veggie growers, we walked past a megafield of broad bean plants - and double the height of mine at home. Not a weed to be seen, unlike home but at least mine are organic.

The countryside of North Hampshire is gentle rolling hills, with scatterings of white and black cottages from the 1600s. You've probably seen the same thing on a big box of chocolates. I don't think they take the pictures in the rain though.

Back to the clothes wringer.
