Bloom Wood & Cold Moorholm before dark

The forecast was for sun today and showers tomorrow. We had a Bottom Line practice this morning, so had to hurry to fit in a walk today. We needed a nearby shortish walk and chose one that we've done many times. We originally found it in the Rambling for Pleasure in East Berkshire book that our friend Liz gave us when we first moved to Marlow Bottom.

We chose this walk partly because it started close to Phil Bowditch butchers where we were able to buy salt beef (a family favourite) last week. We went there before the walk to stock up with more for the freezer and got a very good deal! Guess what we're eating on Xmas Eve.

We did the walk in the opposite direction to the one recommended by the book, and at a cracking pace, to avoid getting caught in the wood in the dark. As it happened, we got back to the car just  in time.
