and guess what! I left my phone at home and there for have no pictures to take unless I go back that way today for Sunday lunch and take a few then.
it wont be quite the same. So this blog will be quite short and with one photo.
Walkers today were Dave and I, Liz was at work which is quite normal if we walk on a Saturday.
We set off from Naunton which featured in a walk a little while ago. Dave soon spotted a mushroom which we picked, I've been waiting for mushroom season to start so was well chuffed to find these beauties, they were pretty huge too.
We came upon the brilliantly named 'Upper Slaughter' which is where I had a weird experience- Dave and I were trying to find our way on the map when we heard a beep from a car,
Considering this is a sleepy Cotswold village, I bumped into a couple (Clive & Lucy) who live in Dublin (Ireland) that I had known a few years who were driving around aimlessly looking for friends that live in ether 'Upper' Or 'Lower' Slaughter' without even having their address's or phone numbers. ( I could say that this sounds very irish- but I had better not, it is not terribly P.C.)
After a quick chat we went on our merry little way, it was nice to see them! (I hope Munster win for you today Clive)
We then went off to 'lower Slaughter' both these places are very picture perfect and very posh, but a bit to many tourists for me to want to live there.
After skirting passed 'Bourton on the water' we then walked along the valley back to Naunton for a quick lime and soda as I've decided to give up alcohol for 6 weeks in preparation for my Holiday to Thailand and Australia. The Black horse was pretty busy so we hotfooted it back to Cheltenham for lunch at the Strand (my local).
And thats is for this week, next time i'll remember to take my camera phone with me.
Cheers for reading,
Carl.
