I managed tov get out for a walk today. It was a route the followed paths within Gosport that I am very familiar with. I must admit though that it was a bit frustrating. Now it is probable (very probable) that we will be moving to Dorset in about a years time. I have spent a fair bit of time, mostly on Google maps working out driving distances around the county, and it is the case that there are only a very few areas that I would need to re-charge seven if only for a little bit for the return journey. The idea being to visit as many parts of the county as I can without having to re-charge the car. That really amounts to an out bound leg of 50 – 60 miles. (100-120 miles round trip). That really does cover most of the county.
Now my frustration from today’s walk relates to my not being able for some reason to do the same thing in Hampshire. Just to identify places I would like to visit, so that on any random weekend, I could just jump in the car and go for a drive with an view to visiting somewhere different.
A few weeks ago, we did exactly that, we went to Warsash. I wanted to visit a pub that had very close links to the preparations for D-Day. Warsash was interesting, and we had lunch in the pub, which was very nice, and it was a really nice trip out. I want to do more of those.
I really must do some more preparation, so that we can have other days out. That would be very nice.
