Geocaches - 1
Walk Inspiration - Millennium Way Stage 7
Oh the irony. I start the day reading about how one in four dogs are now clinically depressed. This is caused by owners leaving them in the house all day and not walking them off the lead, giving the stimulus of new places to explore.
I then spend 10 minutes rounding up our lazy geohound. She does her usual of waiting for me to get my boots and running off and hiding upstairs. No doubt about it, she wants to be in the 25%.
After a good week of walking, I am looking for something not too long and local. The monthly leg on the Millennium Way comes to the rescue.
Park up opposite the Boot pub. According to their adverts, they are Worcestershire's number 1 pub. The steaks looks good.
Head north on the Wychavon way, skirting the edge of Grafton Woods.

Sun. Peeping. |
Then horror of horrors, I put my hand on my coat pocket and have that sinking feeling that something is missing. My sat nav is not where it should be.
This means we have to go back over the electric fence. Back over the stiles of brambles. Fortunately, I find it on the floor before the ladder stile. That's a relief.
Back over the obstacle course to Dormston. Interesting moated farmhouse.

Most unpleasant. I am adding pepper spray and a bat to my ever expanding geocaching kit.
We escape this and I apologise to a caravaner for my very loud profanity.
I avoid the next field of horses. I cannot take the risk of any more grief.
The road brings us to Kington, a pretty hamlet with an unusual church.

Back across a couple of fields and the usual post walk ritual.

Yes, I am. I'm having the weekend off.
I'm sure Molly smiled when I told her.
