		Bill, our leader, outlines the walk in the car park of the Fostons Ash .
		And we set off down the road with the pub in the background .
		We cross the fields to Overtown Farm .
		Pausing on the road .
		Before taking to the fields round Overtown .
		We look across the valley to Cranham in the distance .
		As we head along an old farm track .
		All eyes on the back marker, Bruno, as we wait for him to catch up .
		Then it's into Saltridge Woods .
		Where we make way for a horse and rider .
		Before heading along the edge of the wood .
		And into Lord's and Lady's Wood . .
		So that's how the NHS is reducing waiting lists .
		Continuing down through the woods .
		Towards Sheepscombe .
		Stopping on Sheepscombe Common with views over Painswick .
		For coffee .
		And a chat .
		We look across at the woods behind Sheepscombe .
		And down into Sheepscombe itself .
		Before leaving the Common .
		And descending into the valley .
At Far End and the Ebworth Estate .
A pretty little cottage .
Primroses coming on nicely .
And into Workmans Wood .
We walk along the forest track .
Looking down the valley .
Enjoying the late morning sunshine .
And past a shaded pond .
Where we see some more horses as we pause to take in our surroundings .
Then we head back up the valley .
And out of the woods .
Before walking along the road back to the pub for lunch .
After lunch we continue on our figure of eight walk through Climperwell Woods .
	Pausing below Climperwell Farm .
	Before heading towards Brimpsfield .
	We told Bill to turn left - but he went right -it was the sound of the sea that confirmed his mistake......... .
	We pause at the Polo Yard .
	Then cut across to the road coming out of Brimpsfield .
	A word in your ear - watch out for the ones carrying sticks! .
	We head across the fields anxiously watching some distant storm clouds .
	Passing a derelict muck spreader - would look nice on my decking as a planter .
	A good old Cotswold Farmhouse .
	Along a tree lined path .
	Then its waterproofs on as we get a few spots of rain .
	But not for long as the sun comes out .
	As we complete our circuit to Climperwell .
	And back up the hill to the cars .

	Another photographic report from Richard - thank you once again.
