7 of our intrepid band of walkers completed a 5 hour 12 3/4 mile walk through the Kent countryside and mud today. Recognition should go to Peps and Daz for a 9 (should have been 7) mile walk yesterday - they are very keen.
Hoops supplied the bananas, a light meter, original Leica camera and quick drying brown cords. Daz was ordnance and did a grand job with just a few diversions off piste, including a pub stop in Chiddingstone. A relaxing pint turned into a swift one as the Landlord was adverse to the consumption of our own refreshments on site. Check out the pic including an appearance from the solitary walking pole (aka Neil)...
Chris took up Cheggers mantle of dodgy life stories and lame jokes. Phil taught us about the need to ensure security at the rear end of our team and JP did a grand job of reminding me of mine. And Peps will be searching out his legendary spreadsheet to account for todays beers (our post walk training also got off to a good start). All in a great walk and team day out. God bless the Garden of England!
It was a great days walking. The pub manager was a bit mean but he may have been worried about the litter and left over food attracting birds andother wildlife. Look what it's like at Brightonwhen the seagulls dive down and nick yer chips.
ReplyDeleteAnyway we made it through and we weren't all walking like John Wayne at the end. Well maybe Chris was, but we can fogive him for that.
Good work by Darren for arranging.
Yes a good walk, I feel a tad tired now!
