Shortwood walk - Wednesday 16 October 2019 Previous Next All After days of rain we're pleased to be out in the dry And head over towards the topograph Then downhill We stop for all to catch up in the woods Coffee on the Cotswold Way With views over Stonehouse The rain and this manure heap make an unpleasant sight A tidy small smallholding Stonehouse getting nearer We've just come through this farm We come to the work for the new pipe A huge trench With a blue pipe Lawrence organises us for a photo shoot Sun over Randwick Where the school children enjoy a sunny playtime Lunch in the churchyard where our leader reposes Stone and wooden graves This beautiful bush has a really sheltered spot here We can see Whiteshill Graham psyches himself up for the ascent of The Throat But, after missing a sunbathing grass snake, we're on the top And head back to the car park, enjoying these views.
