A walk around Pitsford!

We decided this morning to tackle the seven mile walk around Pitsford reservoir which we haven't done for years. We set out at 10.30am with some drinks and snacks and made a good time, stopping half way round for refreshments. The second half of the walk was hard going as the sun came out and it became very hot but we all felt fine and Keith's hip gave him no trouble at all so he was mightily chuffed with himself. He confided to me that he thought he'd never be able to do it again so he was very happy. As the day was so pleasant, a lot of people were out cycling, walking and enjoying the sunshine and again, I felt so lucky to have the reservoir on our doorstep.

The afternoon was  spent doing very little and I managed two naps! Needless to say we didn't venture out for a walk later in the evening as we did on Saturday!
