Almost due south over the stable, a misty start to the day. Cycle from the Fox and Goose at Coombe Bissett to Downton for coffee and a slice of flapjack before a long climb up to the ridge and along Pennings Drove. The swallows are taking more interest in the stable block, flying in and then out again, one of them took a wrong turn and ended up in the shed at the back, luckily the cats didn’t see him before he escaped. A showery day with sunny spells and a brisk wind.
