Wall and wet cobbles

This is a lot steeper than it looks in the photo. My friend Craig's garden gate opens onto here, and I stopped for a 30 minute chew of the fat. Problem is, Mrs F was waiting for me, and I'd said I would be just over an hour on my circular, must-keep-the-steps-up walk.

So what followed was the fastest I've ever gone up that hill; the fastest passage through the wood I've ever done; and a cross-country at military speed. I hardly noticed anything except where I was putting my feet, not very relaxing, but boy do I feel exercised now.

Good for the blood sugar at least.
