We went for a walk through the fields and met dozens of other walkers (most of them dog owners). I really enjoy walking in the 'countryside' (say outside of town) and greeting strangers. People are so friendly when you leave the city, especially when you are walking or cycling. I guess people who drive throught the country lane don't actually meet any locals.We ventured to the next village and on our way back, decided to make a little detour via the pub, which is on the river and has a watermill inside. We saw a couple of fishermen there. We first sat outside watching at the castle ruins behind the river, but then it became a bit chilly so we went inside. At this point I have to mention Trave's eternal joke: whenever I say "I'm chilly" he would reply "I'm Argentina, nice to meet you." AH AH AH!!! The worst thing is: I LAUGH EVERYTIME!
As seen from our table:
It was dusk when we left the pub. Light engouh to see the path though, and we had our bike torch if it had been too dark. It's fine walking back home when the fields have wheat or sweetcorn, but we found it difficult to find our way in the dark the first time after the harvest!
