I was out walking for two and a half hours today. I had no originally envisaged quite such a long walk, but decided on a whim to explore the Nar Valley Way, and by the time I diverged from this footpath I was at the Saddlebow Industrial Estate, and headed back into town, following the roads initially until I reached Harding’s Pits, through which I walked to reach the Great Ouse which I followed to the Purfleet, arriving home a rather later than envisaged but having only a missed an over of the third and deciding ODI between England and the West Indies. England were put into bat and have just concluded their 50 overs on 303-6, with Root making a century and Buttler missing out by just one run. I will go out on a limb and predict that having batted that well England will win the match and with it the series.
As usual I have some pictures for you.
