We had fantastic weather and strategically placed stops for icecream and beer were very welcome!

A few people (including the organisers) got a bit lost along the way but everybody managed to make it back for the barbecue eventually.  At the latest count the walk raised a fantastic £3397!

In fact we had such a good time, that we think next year we should go for something a bit more painful – watch this space for details…
