jackie...

Lovely pictures Barb, fancy having to build a wall to stop the church from
going downhill!
the views are lovely, looked a beautiful day!
BunnyHare...
|
Thanks Jackie
It was quite pleasant. I even took my coat off on the way home

Lovely scenery Barb. Is that area very close to where you live? If so,
what a lovely area you live in :)
BunnyHare...
|
Yes, I should have said. Its the next village to us. Actually the two
villages more or less run into on another. It is a nice area,
countrified but still only 3 miles away from Gloucester and 6 from
Cheltenham
|
BunnyHare...
|
11556 steps from my front door, through the village, up the hill and
back to my front door
Aries...
|
LOL were you wearing a stepometer ?
BunnyHare...
|
How did you guess
Aries...
|
wasn't difficult was it LOL
|

Troy's Human...
|
In miles please ?
Mudge...
|
About 34 km and if I knew what "miles" were any more, I'd convert !
Mudge...
|
My bad -- if I recall (and I don't archive messages) 'e said 11,500
some-odd steps - at about 1 metre per step = about 11,000 metres or
about 30,000 feet which give summat like 6 miles or so - dunno where me
loaf was ????
Sorry bout that but I was listening to the Archers omni and had my
old synaptic computer turned off
|
|
BunnyHare...
|
4.92 apparently
Troy's Human...
|
That's just about what we class as a nice walk :-)
Daily default walk = 2+ a bit miles
Nice walk = 5 miles
Even nicer walk = 10 miles
Been just doing the daily walk due to the horrible muddy cold weather.
Looking forward to longer ones and better weather :-)
BunnyHare...
|
Same here, try to aim at least 5 miles whenever possible
Aries...
|
My goodness, you two are making me feel tired LOL
|
|
Aries...
|
I will be walking more when I have my furbaby :D
BunnyHare...
|
You sure will. I won't take out fella cos he is too slow ;-))
|
|
|

Foxy at w**k...
|
Lovely pictures Barb and it looks like it was a lovely walk too
Anita...
|
I really must remember to take my camera when I go out!
Thanks for the photos Barb, they are always interesting :)
BunnyHare...
|
Thanks Anita.
Yes, you should try to remember the camera, surprising what you can see.
It's double edged too. I look for things to photograph and at the same
time I am learning more about the camera and, I hope, taking better
photographs
|
|
BunnyHare...
|
Thanks Jen. It was a lovely day and a lovely walk, too. Shame himself
doesn't walk with me so I hve somebody to talk to. I do sometimes talk
to myself but I get strange looks :-))
Foxy at w**k...
|
Oh me too. I am always talking to myself lol
BunnyHare...
|
I'm in good company then :-)
|
|
|
|
noreen...
|
Barb said she will take me a walk up there sometime ;-)
but seeing it took her all her time to walk up there! think she was kidding
me
but the church is very interesting and the story ;-))
|
Bill P...
|
Nice walk.
BunnyHare...
|
Yes, it was Bill and quite good weather. Breezy up the top of the hill
but warm and sunny down the bottom (of the hill before anybody comments)
|

Don't know where they were taken, but they are beautiful and thank you very
much for sharing them, The one, ' on the hill,' and the one, 'on the way
down,' says everything there is to be said about the English countryside.
|
Rabbit...
|
Nice ones. That's a lovely view from the hill and such a nice clear sky too.
BunnyHare...
|
Yes I was lucky with the weather cos it can often be a bit misty up
there
|
|
Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...
|
Nice photos Barb, looked like a nice day too.
BunnyHare...
|
Thanks FN. It was a lovely day. Even took my coat off and put it in my
Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...
|
I didn't realise you'd emigrated to warmer climes Barb. ;)
BunnyHare...
|
Think it was more that the warmer climes came her for a day FN.
Certainly hasn't been that warm since
|

back pack

|
Troy's Human...
|
Thanks for those Barb - nice piccies.
Been checking my map cos I think I ought to remember that area having lived
close by many years ago.
Alas I don't :-( Didn't venture near to there in them days :-(
BunnyHare...
|
Shame, its nice countryside. Not as good as Lincolnshire, of course ;-)
BunnyHare...
|
Sorry, I should have made it clear. They were taken in Churchdown which
is the next village to the one where I live, in Gloucestershire.
So glad you liked them

biffo...
|
A very nice walk there Barb, and the photo's are ok too !!! ;-))))
BunnyHare...
|
Thanks Biffo. I like to think that taking the camera with me all the
time is giving me practice in using it and, hopefully, the pictures are
getting better
biffo...
|
Barb, you can only get better "practice makes perfect" ;-))(G)
BunnyHare...
|
Yep, that's what I thought too. I have noticed that himself doesn't
make so many bad comments now so I must be getting better
