8 brave souls: me, Catrina, Roz, Di, Nicky, Sandy, Mary, and Jenny, decided that a bit of rain wasn't enough to deter them from taking part in the inaugural WINGs summer walk. We met at the Lock leeper in Keynsham and set off at 7:50 in light drizzle. We walked under the bridge and along the river, past Fry's and past quite a few people fishing. The path was good and it was a nice easy, level walk. (if a bit snail and cow pat littered).
We arrived at the Lock and Weir just after 8:30 and enjoyed a drink and a sit down whilst watching a heron fishing on the weir. Unfortunately there were no other WINGs ladies waiting at the pub to greet us.
As it was getting dark and raining again, we headed back at about 9.
Thankfully some had brought torches as it was quite dark by the time we got back to the Lock Keeper.
We mostly all had very soggy wet feet but we all enjoyed it.
Next year we should go earlier in the year and remember to wear wellies if it's raining!
