The Walk
Autumn chills are starting to affect us but the day started with a clear blue sky, not a cloud in sight. Perfect for walking. We chose a local walk and left the cars at the entrance to Upton Park. Then we crossed the road to the heathland. We made a few detours along the tracks that took us through trees and marshes before joining the old railway track that took us up to Broadstone. Along the way we managed to scrump some apples which staved off any hunger pangs for one or two walkers.
Tony joined us at lunchtime. From Broadstone we retraced our way down the old trailway and branched off towards the lakes. The reflections on the water made some excellent photographs.
We finished up with tea and freshly baked cake at Sue's house. Thank you, Sue. Delicious as usual.
The Pub
The Blackwater. This is Wetherstone's new pub in Broadstone. The big shock was being able to buy a pint of best bitter shandy for £1.95. All the meals were good value and the beef and ale pie was excellent.
