Why?
A perfectly reasonable question.
Why, when you need full waterproofs to get to the car?
Why, when you can hardly see going over Black Down?
Why, trail all the way round to Belstone?
Well, because when you get there.
The roads are dry.
It is a nice evening.
To head out from the green.
Dropping down to the footbridge.
To wend round the side of Cosdon.
And pick up the track heading down to the Taw.
By Skaigh Warren the most beautiful, edible Parasol Mushroom.
Down to the busy river for a cuppa.
Along to Henry Williamson's bridge.
To take the gently rising track back to the green.
All very mild with not a drop of rain.
The Tors was well open with a darts match and huge curry.
