    Our Walking group did a 7.5 mile walk along the South coast, three miles West of Corfe Castle this morning in lovely sunny weather tempered by a raw NE wind. Lots of ups and downs but good cardiac exercise.:smile:

    A lot of this area is MOD.

      Stunning photos Clive, looked like a beautiful walk.

      We are having some much-needed rain at present but still lots of blue in between and warmish, mid teens.

      Thanks for sharing. xx
