		The view from Splatt Bridge on the coldest day so far in 2010 .
		As Joe prepares us for the coming walk .
		Which starts with a brisk walk along the Sharpness Canal ..
		To Cambridge Junction Bridge .
		A pause for a photo opportunity in the Rosies Wood Trust area .
		Then back along the River Cam .
		Some lonely bull rushes .
		And a fence which comes down to the water .
		Ramblers dwarfed by a row of tall trees .
		Before we re-cross the river .
		Pausing to take in the view .
		After which we are confronted by this sign - food for thought! .
		We continue keeping strictly to the footpath .
		Hopefully the picnic area isn't off the footpath .
		Just a lump of stone? - No far more exciting - reconstituted some 250 yrs ago near Bath! ..
		We now reach Frampton Lakes .
		Still a bit icy .
		Through the boats lined up at the sailing club .
		To the next lake where lunch is taken .
		The afternoon starts along a waterlogged path .
		And round a field .
		To the river Frome .
		We then follow the road .
		To Whitminster Church .
		Where Joe tells the story of bodies being built into the structure .
		We cross the Sharpness canal at Saul Junction .
		Pause to look across to the marina .
		And back at the junction with the Willow Trust boats .
Before stopping for afternoon tea at the Canal Trust .
Then its back along the canal .
To Frampton .
With one last look across the Severn .

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 Led 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 Ramblers.
