southcotswoldramblers.org.uk Rodborough pre-AGM walk 28 October 2007 A bit damp and gloomy, and a few hardy souls brighten up the scene . |
||
| Starting
form the Rodborough Community Hall we head over the Common in a steady
drizzle and down into the valley . |
|||
| We
walk through Manor Woods, the Autumn colours starting to appear .. |
|||
| Pausing
at this familiar landmark . |
|||
| And
looking across at Woodchester . |
|||
| Before
heading up to Minchinhampton Common, passing the time of day with a
couple of locals . |
|||
| Approaching
the Bear we move some cows from the pavement, causing traffic chaos . |
|||
| Then
walk down the hill . |
|||
| Into
the valley . |
|||
| Crossing
the canal at Jubillee Bridge . |
|||
| Bad
hair day? No just been lying in dead leaves . |
|||
| We
walk along the canal . |
|||
| Past
this growing family . |
|||
| To
Stroud and the Brunel Viaduct . |
|||
| With
the River Frome . |
|||
| Before
heading up to Rodborough, looking back at Stroud . |
|||
| At
the Community Hall Bernard our Secretary has set up his display . |
|||
| Ready for the AGM | |||

| Thank you Richard for a record of the 5 mile walk. There was also a 3 mile easy walk around the top of Rodborough Common, where just three managed to shrug off the conditions. However the AGM was well attended in the afternoon and a lively exchange of views took place. The home-made cakes all disappeared too! | |||

| As you can see, we thoroughly enjoy getting to know the South Cotswolds. We try to keep fit and succeed in having a good old chat. If you are interested in coming with us, see our walks programme and ring the leader if you have any questions about a particular walk. After two or three walks we hope you will then want to join the group as part of the national Ramblers' Association. | |||
