WW 27th July 2011

A proper little goldmine
That's what it is
A proper little goldmine
And we had blasted round
Picking off the tors
Just like someone
Picking off the tors
On a fine summer's evening
With a helicopter whizzing round
Past the point to point
Past the sunset
Down and up
And round
To get to the Rugglestone
He was there - seemed slightly quieter
And he left before us
And home again
Where two actually saw Lady Godiva
Don't ask

WW 20th July 2011

Well once again he worked his magic
Luring us from the midgy car park
Through the dank woods
Racing up Bellever Tor
Down and round to Laughter
On into the drizzle
Until we came to the place
Where we waited and waited
Then waited and waited
And sure enough
Right on time
One flew round us
And the sound was heard
So we were permitted
To return
To the PoW
Where last orders was called

WW 13th July 2011

A brilliant summer evening for a walk from Walkhampton across the fields to the lovely church that sits on top of the hill. Through more fields to the green lane which leads out to the moor. Soon we were walking on the old railway line and then up to Peek Hill. With superb views all around we took our break here. Then down again - as the moon was coming out. A short walk on the road where we met Charles and then along the leat. Up over the moor again and before we knew it we were back to a warm welcome at The Walkhampton Inn.

WW 6th July 2011

Bagga Tor. A challenging choice of RV for your average WW. However, as he was programmed to lead, we five awaiting his arrival were totally confident - despite the red flag and the red flashing lights signalling live firing on the Merrivale range. Of all people, we could rely on him to provide us with a safe and interesting evening.

So, we eagerly awaited the groaning and creaking noise that would herald the arrival of his travelling (through time and space) machine.

But. He did not come.

After much nervous discussion we set off. And, thankfully, after a decent amount of time, despite inhospitable terrain, a wandering route and much rain, we returned.

Where was he? Probably saving the earth from an evil, alien force from beyond our solar system. We should be grateful for The Doctor.
