Woooo

Well, 5 months since The BA!

How's it going...true answer is good days, bad days.  Its totally unforgiving.  Just been on holiday ( if you wish to be bored silly, pics here ), drove to San Mamete on Lago Lugano, didn't elevate ankle for 3 days, didn't do any stretches, couldn't walk by day 3:((

It WAS good though...

Been to Physiotherapy twice now, target right now is to do this...

could take a while!!

Anyway, pre break, I did a lot of walking, using a few different resources as guides...

books :-

1) AA 50 Walks in Hertfordshire

2) Hertfordshire Chain Walks

and various on line resource...

1) The Chiltern Society Walking Leaflets

2) TFL Walking London 

3) The New River

3) The Lea Valley

4) Brookmans Park Walks...( more on this later)

When I retired I started on The AA book, and have managed over half of them.  Some I decide were too short to 'Bother with' - that has now changed!!

Found the chain walks in the Oxfam shop and decided to walk them in order..especially as a lot of them I could by train from Hertford North!  Up to number 8..

Most of them are recorded on Facebook :-

Anyway...

Now I need to get going again, BUT slowly slowly...so, one has a plan!!

#4 above has morphed into its own little universe, and very good it is too!  Lots of love and commitment to sharing the lush Hertfordshire countryside ( and pubs 🍻🥂) has gone into this by the two owners...and one can only profusely thank them!  

Right, plan, to start on Number 1 (North Mimms Loop) and work through them.  Using Train when possible...This was in fact the first we ever did!!

One will keep you informed.
