Chidham Morning/Day walk 21st June 2016

With London being far too hot, we travelled south to Chidham which was a few degrees cooler. We also were lucky to have a breeze for most of the morning - sometimes almost strong enough to blow off our sun hats. The lack of hills was a bonus. Having walked the 4.1/4 miles to The Old House at Home, we were able to rest for a good lunch before walking the last 3/4 of a mile back to the car park. Lots of animal life seen, including flashes of fast moving fish, probably bass. Highest temperature at nearby Thorney Island was just below 27 degrees, somewhat cooler than Heathrow at nearly 34 Degrees.
