Bluebell Walk with friends




We were very fortunate with the weather,though it was wet early on, the sun came out in the afternoon, so after a yummy lunch of homemade soup and lots of cakes and puddings we were ready for our walk! Though I think maybe with the exception of G, who is a practised walker , my friends will have woken this morning cursing me!! I took them on a walk that I had only partly done before and it went much further round before we could get back again. We saw lovely bluebells on the way, but must have walked 4-5 miles when we eventually reached a point I recognised and poor A was struggling, her wellies had rubbed blisters and so I rang BB and she came and picked up some of us, including the dogs, who were in need of a long drink. G & R did the whole walk. I woke this morning very stiff in the legs and back and think others will be suffering too. So that may be last of the Bluebell Walks, I think they may not want to come again. Though we did have such a good day and lots of laughs, especially when Molly (dog) jumped on the table and started eating the chocolate mousse that G had brought!

The Bluebells are out!




The picture above is of the bluebells last year.

This Saturday my friends and I are getting together for lunch and another Bluebell walk. I do hope the sun will shine on us as it did last year.
