I haven’t been walking anywhere near as much as I should be doing. After work today I suggested that we go to the stokes bay for an hour, Elayne could listen to her audio book, to kill a mockingbird and I would go for a walk.
I must admit it was a lot windier than I thought, a quite brisk westerly with a bit of a chill to it. We parked at Pebbles, I bought a ticket for an hour, left Elayne to her book and started off heading in to the wind. My thinking that I’d rather have my back to it.
It was the right choice. I was pleased to have my waterproof jacket, because it’s also wind proof, some nice gloves and my flat cap, so I was quite comfortable.
I’ve seen the Solent rougher that what it was, but it was very nice to be accompanied on my walk by the sound of the waves crashing against the sea wall and the swoosh as the waves hit the pebbles.
I walked almost two miles still not far enough, but better than nothing.
