Sally in Norfolk

Good to be back with our usual walking group on Sunday.
This walk was from the leaders house in Girton , the route took us 18 miles through lovely wide open countryside.
It was cold and sunny which made you feel alive and fresh.
We finished back at the leaders house where she treated us to Tea and [...]

Today was our first walk in 2010, Flat walks, Hilly walks,Mountain walks, Coastal walks, hopefully we shall cover them all in 2010
Today was 14 miles from Orwell, with our favorite little group.
We had perfect weather conditions, fresh and frosty with pure blue skies and lots of sunshine too.
Lunch break was at Wimpole before [...]

Only a small number of walkers turned out for today’s walk.
Some people are on holiday, the others put off by the forecast of bad weather.
So it was four female walkers that set off from Pakenham at 9.30 am.
Within an hour it was raining and by lunch time we looked like four drowned rats.
After eating [...]

Sundays walk was from Saffron Waldron.
A small group of 7 this week, which meant we did the 15 miles in a very good time.
This time I did remember my sun cream, good job too as it was a boiling hot day.
Could of done with my hat too
I so enjoy the rolling Essex countryside. [...]

This Sunday instead of meeting up with my usual walking group in Cambridge, I drove out to Royston to meet up with the Newmarket Ramblers.
Thanks to my tom tom I found my way there easily.
The reason for doing this was to meet up with a very dear friend. 
Tess and I met maybe 4 years [...]

Yesterday was the 42nd annual Cambridge Oxfam walk, this year held at Chilford Hall.
You could choose from several beautiful walks in the countryside ranging from 4 to 26 miles.
As I was walking with a friend not used to long distances we decided on the 12 mile route.
We woke to the sound of pouring rain [...]

On Sunday after a late night with friends wine and sauna I was up early to meet up with the Cambridge Rambling club.
For all of 10 seconds I thought about just staying in bed but the promise of a 15 mile walk soon convinced me to get up.
I was so glad that [...]

Yesterday I met up with the legstrecther walking group in Brandon for a 16 mile walk.
I always love to catch up with this group when Geoff is away and as usual they were happy to see me.
One of the reasons i like this group is because they offer a longer walk and as you [...]

As most of you will know I was away with Geoff  last week doing what we enjoy….  walking !
At the very last minute it was decided that we would make our way up to the Lake District.
We left  Cambridge on the Wednesday and stopped over with friends in Elland, having a lovely morning walk along [...]

Quite often on a Sunday especially when Geoff is away, you will find me making a 80 mile round trip to meet a group for a 15 mile or more walk.
I have even been known to do a 100 mile round trip
Some people would think this is very excessive but its what keeps me going [...]
