Luke Lops Loads

Steve provided opportunity and equipment for manly boy's stuff, on a sunny afternoon.

Porlock

We had a fantastic walk over Exmoor from Porlock, watching the Hunt, through the woods and with great sea views. Then we indulged in soup, mushrooms on toast, beautiful cakes and posh tea, before finishing up at Porlock Weir where Rio had a dip. Superb day - thanks S&C.

Lumberjacking

Steve only has 9 chainsaws, so to make a bit of a challenge, I said taking trees down with an axe would be way more fun. It certainly kept me warm. We then employed climbing tech and know-how in an awesome display of semi-professionalism to get a few more ash trees horizontal. 

Rio

BIG tree, small dog.

The Tivoli

We waited a while for the food but when it did arrive it was worth it. Meanwhile we caught up on hilarious goings-on with our lovely friends.

Sunny Sunday

A beautiful sunny day in the valley but we went up in the clouds, where it was slippy and wet. The light bouncing off the trees and throwing the geography into relief was awesome. We came down a river/path to claim hot chocolates. As ever, Tim out-climbed me on every incline.

Super Saturday

After a day with Grandma, Claud and Simo, involving a nice walk at Crickley and a relaxing afternoon; we headed to Worcester to meet up with Iain and Bev, ahead of Bev's gig at the Huntington Hall.
