Off message but I had a glorious country walk yesterday. Started in Finchingfield, Essex which is often described as the county's "prettiest village". The weather was perfect - warm and sunny. It is not that often you can wear shorts and a shirt in this country during October. It was a little sad to come across these iron watermills rusting away. An important part of our history will one day just disappear. Mind you, it is now a beautiful and peaceful spot.
If you have a Facebook account I have posted more pictures here. Once again despite being only 50 minutes drive from Forest Gate in East London there were very few other walkers.
