PARKINSON WALK

Today, we did a walk we have not done for some time, it was chosen because of the shade but has actually been cloudy and cooler with a couple of light showers.   It was a very pleasant walk (in fact so pleasant that I forgot about taking photos).

Unfortunately, we had two falls.  One man had emailed to say he was not coming as he had muddled his meds and was not feeling the best but he felt better and decided to come.  As we were not expecting him we had gone on and, in his hurry to catch up, he took a tumble and arrived with a bloodied knee.  Then on the way back a new walker had a tumble.

A while ago there was a craze for putting painted rocks (or pebbles) tucked into places on the tracks for children (or adults who haven't grown up) to find.  We had not seen any for some time but came across a small painted pebble at the weekend so Doug decided to paint some for the group today.  They went down very well but I forgot to take a photo of the only one I noticed on our return.







The showers were very light although we now have a grand 2 inches in our water barrel.  More showers forecast during the week.
