That's such a shame. I would have liked to have tagged them.

My first King Charles postbox, a yew tree said to be over 3000 years old (just wow!) and a visit to Janes Austen's home. A splendidly muddy walk.
Thoroughly recommend the LDWA walks for those who fancy a decent stretch.

Awww. I'm sorry to have brought up sad memories.

Well, that's depressing.

Well thats rubbish!

We made our way through Mucking Marsh, with reeds gently swaying as the sun lowered. Far more beautiful than the name suggests.

The walk from Tilford Town station to the car completed the connection. A very gentle sort of day.

Coalhouse fort came into sight and with it the Engine room Cafe. The cake looked very inviting and was indeed, excellent. Highly recommend visiting this friendly place.

There were remarkable views at the fort, with ships sailing past the green grass.

This part of the Essex coast seems to have many free ranging ponies and eventually we came to some which seemed to be sporting the most remarkable hair-dos. On closer inspection, burrs had shaped their manes into wild spectacles. The latest in pony fashion. It looked v. uncomfortable though.

It would be good for those who would like their location not to be listed on social media.

Theyve got excellent reviews! Definitely worth the investment I think to keep running and make winter less frustrating. Ive ordered some.

They sound *very* interesting. I'll look them up! Thanks!

Small new tactic. Using the residual heat in my handwarmers, used for running, in my slippers.
