It was in the neighbouring town of Charmouth that I began my walk which took me up to the highest point in Dorset, Golden Cap. It was a fairly steep assent but worth the effort for the views that were waiting at the top. Across rolling green hills across the the rugged coast. I came across some more cows today (oh nooooo!!) but you'll be glad to know that they were all friendly and docile. Just as cows should be. A very steep set of stairs took me down to the beach along which I walked back to Charmouth. It is along this coastline that mud slides occur frequently, thus revealing fossils, mostly of marine animals as this part of England was once on the bottom of an ocean. I even found some fossils myself. Ok, so the most impressive was probably smaller than a tic tac, but I'm sure you'd agree it was an impressive feat all the same. Word of warning though...from a great height, don't mistake a peddle beach below for sand. Those pebbles are not easy to walk on!
Next it was off to find Jayne and Scooby up near Cirencester. Already being a member of the "I Love Scooby" facebook page, my joy of being reunited with an old mate was no surprise. Even better to have a ride on him again for old time sake. Jayne's yard is simply lovely. An intimate little setup, all her hard work has paid off. Next it was off to Jayne's friend Becky's place for a BBQ and overnight.
