I did something that I don't often do this weekend

Sparky415 · **on:** October 25, 2010, 09:41:14 PM

Went for a shortish walk in the country
I ~~got dragged~~ went for a walk in the Chiltern hills with the GF and her overenthusiastic dog
Just to show you what the English countryside looks like in my area

A closer at one of the little chaps that live in here

Foraging in the Chilterns can be quite rewarding sometimes

Glad he can remember which way is home

Wait for me dog I'm full of food!

Can't beat a walk through some British woodlands can you

Sparky415 · **Reply #2 on:** October 25, 2010, 10:09:32 PM

Its not something I do very often and I'm still aching

but I must admit I did enjoy it

I think I'm doing something similar in Wales next weekend (a curry serving pub there

)

Just to rub it in tony I went for a 12 mile hilly hike last weekend and didn't ache

Thanks Guys

12miles

this felt like 12 to me

(I will find out how many we did

)

ryan1835 · **Reply #6 on:** October 25, 2010, 11:33:59 PM

Probably half a mile

Very nice, and good for your arse too

The leaves are very pretty around here at the moment, and the light is stunning so it makes walking the dog easier due to distraction.

I know I was ready for fish an chips at the pub with a nice pint of Breakspears Bitter

Gareth · **Reply #9 on:** October 26, 2010, 12:35:21 AM

Very nice Tony. At least is wasn't tipping it down.

Neil · **Reply #10 on:** October 26, 2010, 12:57:25 AM

Admit it, you walked those woods thinking, there's a handle, there's some scales

Looks like you and the GF and the pup had fun Spark

Sparky415 · **Reply #12 on:** October 26, 2010, 06:51:08 PM

Gareth, I was amazed it was such a nice day
I was down to a T-shirt at one point

Neil, I was thinking my Kuk would go through that

my Machete would sort that out

I should have brought my Ax

J-sews, it wasn't too bad

Got back and the dog is 'Do it again

do it again

'

So how far did you go

AHB · **Reply #14 on:** October 26, 2010, 07:27:19 PM

Great pics Tony, you should get out more often..

Sparky415 · **Reply #15 on:** October 26, 2010, 07:36:18 PM

Well I thought it was 12 miles (maybe more)
but she says it was 6 in total

But she forgets it was up and down so that adds about 8 more I reckon

AHB, That's what she said so I said we should go every year

ITtechguy · **Reply #16 on:** October 27, 2010, 12:31:54 AM

I try and get out as much as a can

Don't take this the wrong way, but the moment I read the word "arse" in your post, something clicked inside my head about you being from England...
But that's off topic.

Beautiful pics by the way! I love taking walks in the countryside and hiking trails.

Great pics mate.

Now the summer is starting here in NZ I look forward to taking many more like it myself

Admit it, you walked those woods thinking, there's a handle, there's some scales

Admit it, the dog was thinking There's some squirrel poop, there's some mouse poop

You're going to make a plate

Gareth · **Reply #24 on:** December 18, 2010, 04:44:38 PM

I'm not sure a wooden frying pan's such a good idea you know.

Been snowing down your way Tony?

Sparky415 · **Reply #27 on:** December 18, 2010, 07:27:19 PM

Oh yes

Who's first for a go on the MT.O Slayer?

Now I have to find a small child and a steep field

AHB · **Reply #28 on:** December 18, 2010, 07:53:39 PM

Be careful out there Tony..

Sparky415 · **Reply #29 on:** December 18, 2010, 08:07:19 PM

You don't think I would be silly enough to go on that death trap do you
