		Meeting by the new Stroud College Steve, one of our new leaders, outlines his route up to Randwick and back via the Cotswold Way and Canal . .
		A few clouds scud across the sky as we set off uphill .. .
		And down again . .
		Others are exercising too . .
		Behind us another angle on Selsley Common .. .
		Has no-one got any sugar? . .
		Steve tells us about the newly renovated Randwick Village Hall, which generates and saves energy in many ways . .
		Gough contemplates one of the Five Valleys . .
		Here's another one . .
		Steve strides along the Cotswold Way . .
		Past the isolated Randwick Ash, visible up on the horizon from many different angles . .
		We turn down hill . .
		Still on the Cotswold Way . .
		And over the railway . .
		To continue back along the canal under Oilmills Bridge, a pleasing blend of old foundations and new deck . .
Another blend of old and new . .
Then a wildlife haven . .
Before turning up hill . .
To cross the newly named Jack Russell Way (Jack, the former English wicket keeper comes from Stroud) . .
And back to the Stratford Park Leisure Centre car park .

	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.
