BUDE LONG Weekend --- March 2008
Norman took the group to BUDE for the 2008 pre-easter long weekends. He had to use two hotels because of the ever increasing popularity of this holiday! On each of the four days there was a choice of at least one long and one short walk. I am grateful to everyone who has given me photographs of the walks.

Woman seeks attention

To ensure no-one gets lots at the start Norman has painted the tarmac

"Muddling" along

Barbara isn't yet back to her best

Looking up the estuary

Will the photographer forget her day pack?!

Golf seems a more attractive option right now

Having grown a tail Norman decides against sitting down

The home straight

Looks like another coastal walk today

What are we supposed to do then? Swim up the canal?!!

These are some Mike baked earlier

Mike and Rick watch anxiously as the cake supply dwindles

Tony is the tea boy today

This is Mike's tea shop

Mike is determined to tell the group about the canal

I thought following canals meant flat walking

Rick shows off his front loading trouser pockets

Surely this is the top now!

Coasting along again

Waiting for Norman?

Someone's built a visitors' centre here

A precarious tea stop

The route ahead is obvious!

For most resting is more of a priority than enjoying the view

 

Tony caught in a rare moment of elation

 

Disappointment that the derelict building is neither a toilet nor a tea shop

Spectacular coastline

Appreciating sun -- and level ground

Spreading out up the final hill
