Ten men gathered on the outskirts of Wappenbury for the start of a beautiful walk. The sky was blue and cloudless and the temperature was soon well over 20 degrees. The walk was along country lanes and public footpaths that weaved through the villages of Wappenbury, Eathorpe and Hunningham. Richard paused the walk on a few occasions to enlighten us with information on historic sites and characters including the founder of Jaguar Cars who lived in Wapenbury.
Many of the fields were planted with beans and potatoes that looked like they really need some significant rain. The group also came across sheep, cattle horse and a sheep dog that had more energy than the entire group.
By noon the walk was over and it was onto the Rugby Tavern for a good lunch and drink. Three additional MIRTHers joined for the meal and conversation. Several people commented on how the walk, conversation and meal had lifted their spirits.
