Geocaches - 7
Stage 34 of the Millennium Way
Pub - Duck on the Pond, Black Sheep Holy Grail
I have some similarities with Julie Bradbury - we both look good in goretex and appeal to a certain type of man. Yet there is one thing I fundamentally disagree with her about.
She thinks canal walking is wonderful.
I think canal walking involves alcoholic tramps, pleasure seekers boating at a pace slower than I can walk and lots and lots of dog poo.
So, it was with a certain amount of horror that I looked at my monthly leg of the Millennium Way and saw that most of it was on the Grand Union Canal.
And it's raining.
Still, I'm duty bound. At least it starts at a pub. The weirdly named Duck on the Pond at Long Itchington.

3.5 Miles of this |
It's also providing better walking than the green lane (when was mud ever green?) called the ridgeway, which I need to follow when leaving the canal to get back to the Big Itch.
It's getting worse - not better |
