goodbye blackberry way

saturday 5 september. 14.30 - the westcott walk with a different ending

walkers: farty fallover and clatchat.
weather: sunny at first - clothing removed/ cloud - clothing donned (as they say in s.e.p)

not too many general public around, which was good, except for a group of londoners on their duke of edinburgh award , silver level - think we might have sent them in the wrong direction. MASSES of blackberries, so pots were out pretty often. Nasty smell of poo at one point, and after checking our trousers, were relieved to discover the cause - silage in field - scary moment eh? not too much wildlife, lots of sweetcorn on the way. found alternate routes towards the end, and a much better finish, which avoids - wend n.b.- not so many hills and is away from the backs of people's gardens.

comfort stops = best taken during early part of walk , or maybe we should practice with some shewees /urinelles - all available on the net. no photos today. and not when they are in use either.
n.b. the car park at the wotton hatch is solely owned by THE COUNCIL.

next walk: tuesday 8th sept 10.30 - REIGATE HILL - bring containers for blackberries.
