The Walk
The
weather forecast was not optimistic, but the Wednesday walkers are not easily
put off. We met at Canford Magna, on the road outside Canford School. Our path
took us along the Castleman Trailway alongside the River Stour. When we came to
Oakley Hill we turned towards Wimborne. Being early, we allowed the ladies to
browse the shops and we popped into the Costa Coffee shop for a spot of liquid
sustenance. Then we walked back to the pub.The rain started as we were finishing our lunch. We waited until it stopped and then walked down to Riverside Park. This was once the site of Flight Refuelling but is now being turned into a new housing estate. The path got a bit muddy as we followed the riverside path but nothing we could not cope with. Finally, we crossed over at the refurbished footbridge. It was raining again as we arrived back at Canford Magna.
The Pub
The Coach
and Horses, Wimborne. We studied the Christmas lunch menu while we were here
and opted to book our walker’s lunch for 18th December. Today’s menu
was good and reasonably priced. The pie eater declared himself well satisfied
with his meal. Several crossword puzzles were completed.
Next Week
Meet at
the usual lay-by near The Angel Pub at 1030. We plan to eat at the King’s Head
in Longham.
