Elsted walk on 24th August 2022


After one Wednesday walk cancelled because of the extreme heat, the next one because of the extreme rain. we were at last on our feet, guided by Celia and Miguel around the  Elsted village area. With plenty of animal life to see, conditions stayed good for the walk, although somewhat humid, so a return to the Three Horseshoes for re-hydration was much appreciated. The walk was about 4 miles and NO stiles!

Carefully does it

Pheasants, hoping to make it past the 1st February 2023!

Looking sheepish

"Just checking my phone"

"Now, where did I put my other stick......?"

To move 40 sheep, all you need is a dog

Drink stop and a sit down

Mill House, getting closer to the pub!

Ah, that's better.

Long drink desperately needed!

Cockerel kept chasing the waitress

Thanks for the walk, leaders!
