What a delightful event, Uncle Tom Cobley and all.
Definitely waterproofs to head up through the amazing Grimspound. Over and down by the RAF memorial to follow the Natsworthy lane then steeply up and up to find a spot for a cuppa on Chinkwell. By then the rain had eased and the heat had warmed. Down by Bonehill to the Fair which was as busy as ever. With all the attractions, something for everyone and busy, busy, busy. Soon time to meet up and head back up the interminable lane and on by The Blue Stone. To follow the ridge as the mists came in. By all the stones and unerringly back by the Pound to the cars.
Whatever you do, please do not mention the blue ticket!
