The National Hamfest 2011 – Sunday
It is Sunday 26th September by this time next week the Hamfest will be over – except for the cleaning up. I am here to check the building before we start the set up, so I thought I would post a photo of the hall empty – just add one Hamfest.

More Practice Walking
With only two weeks to go until we start the West Highland Way, I thought I would walk into Lincoln this afternoon, rather than use the car park near the office where my meeting was.

West Highland Way – Practice Walk
I went out today to get some more practice miles done before the West Highland Way and explored some different paths around Heighington and out to the River Witham and the Sincil Drain.
We ended up walking out to the bridge at Fiskerton using a path that ran along the top of the embankment, by the Sincil Drain. One bit of advice, the path is faint and very overgrown in places with thistles and nettles so wear long trousers (photo above), and don’t walk it when it is wet.
The screenshot above is from my iPhone 4 using Memory Map.
At the Fiskerton Bridge we stopped for some tea and so a wasp could sting Richard! We then returned following the Water Rail Way back to Washingborough and then up to Heighington.
