Walking home from my school volunteering I ended up walking into Wellington to catch the last post.

I was supposed to to post the letter in the morning on my way back from a meeting but I forgot to stop on my journey home.

On the way home from my volunteering I had intended to walk to a local post box that has a late afternoon collection. Once again I ended up forgetting and walking home in the opposite direction.

When I remembered my letter I walked to the next post box that I thought would have an afternoon collection. It didn’t and by now I was nearly in Wellington so I walked the extra distance to the main post box with its late afternoon collections. This gave me the perfect opportunity to pop into my opticians to get my glasses adjusted. They have been sliding down my nose during the hot weather.

I returned home via the churchyard where I sat a while near to the rose garden, enjoying the peace and quiet.

Walking to and from school I ended up walking nearly 6 miles.
