Afternoon Stroll from Garden to Clough (0)
The weather looked like it would be kind to me today (ie: not rain) so I decided to take a stroll through the Terraced Gardens at Rivington then return via a descent through Tigers Clough.

Diary 2011 – Week 45 (2)
I was walking across the moors of Winter Hill when I came upon the cairns on top of Two Lads Hill. They reminded me of a story by the late Arthur C Clarke, “The Sentinel” that the film “2001: Space Odessy” was based on.

It’s amazing what you find on Vimeo when you’re not looking for anything in particular. This little fairy tale really took my fancy. Hope you like it too.

A Stroll Around Scholes Bank (4)
After a leisurely lunch at my local cafe I decided to brave to persistent drizzle and take the dogs for a walk and a ball game. However, by way of a change, I decided not to walk up to the meadows in Rivington but to stay a little closer to home. So we went to an area about a 1/4ml away that is known locally as Scholes Bank.

Gentle Stroll (0)
I took possession of a car on Monday to replace the one that was stolen last November, so I decided to take the dogs for a stroll in Wilderswood. It was an opportunity to test out my injured knee before venturing on more challenging terrain, and that meant a gentle stroll was the order of the day.
