We are either getting less fit or more tired as this walk seemed like six miles, yet it was only four. This is potentially a worrying fact but, perhaps, I ought not to dwell on it. Sutton Valence is only a few miles down the road from home which is good as I couldn’t face an hour long drive afterwards. As it happens this was probably my favourite walk so far – it has nice varied scenery and is a proper circular walk with no repeated sections. Not many words in this post – just photos… they are easier to do.

It is alwys nice to see Lambs having lunch, and most pleasing to actually capture it. Bless that little milk drinker.

The next photo is of a memorial to John Willes who was an English cricketer who, though he made only five known first-class appearances, had a significant impact on the game’s history and development. Willes played for Kent county cricket teams and was a fast underarm or, when he could get away with it, roundarm bowler.
