Malvern Hills
Sunday 13 September 2020
Bianca Bongo had performed wonderfully on our European adventure, so we wanted to give her a little treat. We booked Bianca in for some anti-rust treatment at a place in the Midlands and, wanting to make the most of it; we arranged to meet a friend and do a little walk in the Malvern Hills while we were there.
Steeple Creek
Sunday 26 July 2020
“Steeple?” said one of our friends. “Why Steeple? There is nothing there!”
Circular Walk from Beeleigh Falls
Sunday 19 July 2020
This weekend we were in Essex again. We were lucky enough to get a pitch on a fantastic campsite and meet up with our friend, Sioban, for a walk in the beautiful Essex countryside.
Mersea Island Circumnavigation
Sunday 12 July 2020
We needed to get out in the Bongo but didn’t want to travel too far with all of the lockdown restrictions. Quite by chance, I saw a post on a Facebook group one evening, and after a brief exchange of messages on Facebook, I had managed to book us on to a campsite that I had never heard of before located in a part of Essex I had never heard of before.
Caer Caradoc – Short Walk
Sunday 05 July 2020
After several months in lockdown, and with the national restrictions now being lifted, we needed to travel to Shropshire on business and so took the opportunity to do a short walk around Caer Caradoc.
Socially Distant in Shoreham
Saturday 20 June 2020
Like many, we have not walked for months. During the ‘lock-down’, imposed as a result of coronavirus, we managed to walk around the local estate for an hour a day for exercise and, on one occasion, we even managed a six-mile walk to a small village next to us. But these were not ‘proper’ walks.
Minster to Sheerness
Sunday 26 January 2020
A drive out to Minster in the Bongo is not as bad as some might think. I am not entirely sure what this stigma is with the Isle of Sheppey, not being a local, but I find Minster quite a nice place to park up and stroll along the coast a little.
ArcticDry Xtreme Waterproof Socks – My best bit of gear for 2019
Wednesday 15 January 2020
Waterproof socks are not new. They have been around for ages. For some reason, I can’t quite recall; they just never made it on to my kit list.
Mud Ado About Hadham
Sunday 12 January 2020
Much Hadham is a small quintessentially English village in the Hertfordshire countryside that is slightly west of Stanstead Airport and perhaps, more importantly, the starting point of the first Team South East walk of 2020.
Walk off the Mince Pies
Saturday 28 December 2019
Each year there is an annual “walk off the mince pies” walk in the Snowdonia National Park organised by the Walking For Pleasure Facebook group. This year the walk started in Llanberis and took in Moel Eilio (726m), Foel Gron (629m), Foel Goch (605m) and Moel Cynghorion (674m) and Susan, and I decided we would do it!
