Monday May 11, 2009; 11.5 miles, ascent approx 450m (Map OS Explorer 122)
Absolutely bursting to get out for a long walk. Having done the up-river bimble from home to Hamsey church and back (see previous entries for route) on the Saturday, with my excellent chums Rachel and Jim the dog, I realized what a fabulous May it was that seemed to be rushing by me.
I opted for a lovely walk from home, on the Downs beyond the old Lewes racecourse. The weather was lovely, a bit of a breeze, but no the gales that had been forecast. No doubt these had discouraged others, so I enjoyed a peaceful walk and was out of sight of the rest of humanity for a couple of hours at least.
Here are some pictures for now - more details to follow another day.
