When I need a break I often take a walk at
College Lake, which is only a couple of miles from Tring. There is always something to see as the seasons change and Nature continues to reclaim this old chalk pit. And (assuming I get back to the Visitor Centre by 4 pm (3 pm in winter) I can round off the outing with a cup of coffee and a cake. However I may be cutting back on the walks (but hopefully not for long) because yesterday I strained my back. The first time was well over 30 years ago - moving furniture in my office at work prior to the office being repainted and I was laid up for three months. However I now know what to do - and have a set of exercises which usually get me fully mobile again within a week or two. The last time was about five years ago, when we still had
Franci - who wanted his daily walk - so I went to
Ashridge and took a mobility scooter so I could walk him through the woods there, with Franci trotting alongside.

Many different species of grasses could be seen - but I don't know the names of any of them! |
