		Joe runs through his customary welcome speech as we start from Splatt Bridge in Frampton-on-Severn . .
		Setting off along the Sharpness Canal . .
		Under the watchful eye of a swan . .
		To Cambridge Arms Bridge . .
		Which we cross soon coming to this very old cottage . .
		A pause at a new bridge to take in the view . .
		Before we head back along the River Cam . .
		Another stop for Joe to point out points of interest . .
		Which includes this icy stretch of water . .
		Coffee break . .
		And a chance to sign up some potential new members . .
		Before we head back across fields . .
		And along the edge of Nebrow Hill . .
		Should a gate on a footpath be chained up? . .
Our route takes us past the boat club . .
To Frampton Lakes where we spot a black swan . .
And settle down for lunch . .
Watched by some cormorants . .
Too late for lunch we spot this dead fish as our afternoon walk begins . .
With Frampton Court and a flock of geese to our left . .
We head towards Saul well wrapped up in the icy temperatures . .
	Across more frozen fields . .
	And by a frozen lock gate . .
	We reach the road . .
	And head along to Saul Church . .
	Before reaching the towpath of the Stroudwater Canal . .
	Something to do with global warming . .
	We cross the canal at Saul Junction and look back up the Stroudwater Canal . .
	An aptly named boat belonging to the Canal Trust . .
	We continue along the canal to Frampton Church . .
	Eventually arriving back at Splatt Bridge . .

	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.
