The next of our regular walks took us on a circular route starting at Grimston, via Roydon common, through Castle Rising and back to Grimston following Babbingly Brook (at least I think so – my local geography isn’t brilliant!). 

Expertly navigated and led by Dave & Sherrie, the walk saw us walking through woods, over streams, taking our life in our hands as we crossed two main roads (one of which was the extremely busy A149 – twice!).  Lunch stop was at the Black Horse in Castle Rising where some good food was enjoyed by all.  I wasn’t going to have a pudding – it was the others, they made me!!!!

We saw some wildlife – some of us saw a live deer, then on the way back Sherrie found a deer of her own, in a slightly less pretty state, on a foray into the trees!

A pretty tiring route this one, I am sure Dave told us 7 miles before we started, Sherrie corrected that to 8 as we walked!  So exhausting in fact that we felt the need to stop at the pub in Grimston for refreshment before heading back to the cars!
