09:24:02 From Hilaire Belloc's The Old Road, partly the inspiration for today's walk. | 12:42:37 The Red House in Highclere where I started my walk, after lunch. | 12:50:12 Taken by accident? | 12:51:35 Unfortunately a hornet got into my pint. |
12:53:33 | 12:53:44 The hornet swimming around. | 12:55:20 My lunch. | 13:33:37 Near the start of my walk was a bit of woodlan with an abundance of mushrooms. This I believe is the Red Cracking Bolete. |
13:33:42 More of the same. | 13:34:55 Something else, not a bolete given the gills. | 14:24:13 Up on the Hampshire Downs now. | 14:38:27 |
14:51:50 The sign for the path I was following had become detached from whatever post or tree it was originally affixed to. | 14:52:01 | 14:52:36 I put it back where it seemed most logical. | 15:44:40 I think this might be the start of the Wayfarer's Walk. |
15:44:58 Some sheep on a hill. | 15:45:02 | 15:51:02 The Combe Gibbet / Inkpen Hill Long Barrow. | 15:53:35 |
15:53:47 | 15:53:50 | 15:53:52 Taken by accident? | 18:01:17 Tonight's camping setup, in a hedge again. Actually managed to do this before dark for a change! |
18:01:28 | 18:01:39 | 18:07:58 Cooking dinner - pasta with bolognese sauce. | 18:08:22 |
19:15:47 Had a little fire with my Honey Stove later on for morale. | 19:15:48 | 19:15:52 | 19:18:18 |
19:18:40 | 19:19:03 | 19:22:14 | 19:22:25 |
19:22:27 | 19:22:29 | 19:33:10 Me and the fire. | 19:33:42 |
