An Aldford - Churton Round.
At the start.
Now, where is number 7?
Pumping in or pumping out?
How many groups?
Lunch "in stile"
A house with an important message.
The message made clear.
Decorative paintwork on the Duke's cottages.
Geese? What geese?
Distance: 7.5 miles / 12kms, Climb: Not a lot.
Overall walk average: 2.4 m.p.h. / 4 km/h
Group: Sue, Michel, Fran. David. Nigel. Celia. Wendy.
Although the weather forecast was not wonderful, we were lucky enough not to have a single drop of rain and most of us walked in short sleeves. We meandered along the Dee to Churton and the only real mud was on the path through the wood as we left the Dee to head for Churton.
Lunch was taken just after noon at a junction where some found a stile to perch on and others propped themselves by a gate post.
A gentle amble which was missing a little sunshine to show off the lovely autumn trees.
Birds seen: heron, geese, long-tailed tits, gold finches and lots of LBJs…

One or two even managed to have a pint in the Grosvenor Arms at Aldford.

No 7 left Chester at 9.15 as instructed. Dead on time. Maybe she does not drive on country roads as fast as some might like, but that is the way things are. Nice walk. Good company and great to be out. Many thanks Sue and Michel Celia
