I woke this morning
feeling particularly miserable; but half an hour spent on the sofa
wiith my dog perked me up somewhat. My phone rang rather earlier than
you might expect on a Sunady morning. Whoever it was never actually
spoke, but I could hear chattering in the background. Mind you with
today's technology you get the caller ID displayed. I shall phone
07804 602107 tomorrow morning at 5am to see who it was.
We got ourselves ready
and drove out to Paddock Wood. Or nearly Paddock Wood. There was a
geo-meet planned for the evening so we thought we'd have a walk round
the area beforehand. Eleven of us and two geohounds meet up in a pub
car park at 10am and set off for a walk. And an excellent walk it
was.
We covered nine miles; we
found forty five caches. It might have been more had the field
puzzles we solved been closer. Several milestones were acheived by
various people on our walk; including Sue and Malcolm's five
thousandth cache find.
I took
a few photos whilst we were out and about.
The evening meet-up was
scheduled for 6pm; we got back to the pub with two hours to spare.
Fortunately we weren't too late for food. A plate of roast lamb
slipped down very nicely. As did Shepherd Neame's ales straight from
the barrels; to say nothing of a bottle of Brilliant ale and a bottle
of Christmas ale.,
I'd spent the day walking
with excellent company, and the evening chatting with even more
excellent company. Not a bad day at all...
