Today I walked 5 ½ miles for my Race the Distance challenge in support of Ukraine. I will be making a donation to support the emergency support charities and when my medal arrives I will dedicate another walk in support of Ukraine.

My walk took me to Woodhenge, Leegomery Pools, The Silkin Way, Apley Woods, Dothill Nature Reserve and the paths that linked them all together. The sunshine and the antics of the birds on Tee Lake uplifted my spirit

I had a lovely brisk local walk before it was time to do the weekly shop. The shopping experience turned out to be as much of a palaver as trying to park for my recent walk in the Town Park, culminating with a broken bottle of beer in the boot of Mr C’s car!

Back home with bags unpacked it was time for ‘Fine Dining’ before visiting my mum for the evening. We arrived with her weekly shopping as she is unable to shop at the moment due to spraining her ankle. I will not comment on how well we did in the Shropshire Star Quiz!
