Why is everyone looking at Olivia? She's not leading
Avening looking colourful today.
Past wild roses
Lots of black lambs
A mass of buttercups
Very well-marked path
Pea (or bean?) shoots
Where we could buy this dovecote for less than £163.60? Won't fit in my rucksack.
Back markers Jane and Graham doing a sterling job
And we eventually arrive in Tetbury. No-one opts for a makeover.
Because this construction work seems to be in the way of our usual path
After a lunch in the shade, we continue
We wait for everyone to catch up, taking advantage of the shade again, everyone flagging a bit in the heat.
Getting close to our destination
But the non-functioning water fountain adds insult to injury on this hot day.
John is. He checks his watch.
We head up through the churchyard on this incredibly humid day
And cultivated climbing ones.
Very cute
A procession through a flat field
This kissing gate doesn't look very accessible
We come out by Chavenage House
Past dairy cows among the buttercups
John clears the way into the wood
We have to walk up the A433
A few poppies in the wheat
Unusual horse jumps
A field of barley
We can spot part of this beautiful garden below
