What a lovely morning for a walk.   Well, nine of us thought so as we met this morning at Deerleap car park. 

It was quite a straightforward and well worn track mostly on gravel and we soon settled into a steady pace and able to maintain easy chatting whilst enjoying the heathland and the birds twittering in the trees above us.    Luckily, due to the gorgeous sunny weather we have had lately, the odd areas of marshy ground were easy to negotiate. 

We plodded onwards exchanging cheery hellos with passing walkers and 70 minutes and just over 2 miles later we were back at the car park and goodbye time again.   Thanks to all of you that came along. 

We’ll set up another walk in about 6 weeks so look forward to that. 

Ken & Charmian

Members (and friends) are invited to join Charmian and me for walk on THURSDAY - yes THURSDAY- 24th March.  We’ll meet at Dearleap car park at 10.00am.    The entrance is almost opposite the New Forest Wildlife Park.   It’s a popular walking area so allow time to find space for parking. 

The greater majority of the walk is on gravel cycle tracks with one small muddy patch so stout footwear is recommended.  It should take about 75 minutes.    We look forward to seeing you there.     Ken
