Before lunch I visited Wellington to pick up a copy of the ‘Walking With Giants’ walking trail booklet that has recently been published by Wellington LA 21 Group. I found it a bit of a challenge figuring out how to gain access to the Council Offices where I had been advised that I would be [...]

Get Telford Walking – Day Two
Today I joined the Ramblers ‘Walking for Wellbeing’ walk that started at Horsehay golf course. The walk was mostly along places I had never been before, although it incorporated two places with memories for me.

A Day at the Zoo
We enjoyed a lovely sunny day at Chester Zoo. Some of the animals were illusive as they were on our previous visit several years ago. I was too busy walking (6 miles) and animal watching to take many photographs.
