The Plan
An Upton
Heath walk
Who Turned Up
Trisha,
Sue, Wendy, Trudy B, Trudy H, Tony, David
(Beatrice
and Jackie joined us for lunch)
The Walk
Instead
of using the car park at Upton House, we parked alongside the road in
Woodpecker Drive. This quickly gave us access to the heath on the opposite side
of Longmeadow Lane. It was a beautiful spring day as we set off across the
heath towards the Wareham Road. We didn’t bat an eyelid as we ambled past of
group of bullocks with suspicious looking horns and they didn’t bother us. The
greenery was enhanced by the yellow gorse and we saw several butterflies on our
path.
After
lunch we took a different route back across the heath to the cars and, by now,
the sky was a clear blue with no wind.
Our thanks to Trudy for the photographs.

The Pub
The
Holmbush. The staff were very friendly, but what a strange mixture of dishes.
The pie-eater rated his food a full ten out of ten. It was a piping hot turkey
and stuffing pie cooked to perfection. The mashed potatoes and gravy added to
the flavour. However, those who had chips with their meals were less impressed.
The chips were tepid and not up to an acceptable standard.
Next Week
No walk.
You all know why.
