Part 2 of the walk began just north of St Briaval's on the Wye. Walking through old woodland with moss covered rocks and trees bent into weird shapes we expected to come across a Hobbit at any moment. Poor Lorna was suffering with her back on this walk but soldiered on bravely.
Stopped for lunch in the lea of an old stone wall and were soon divebombed by Great Tits swooping in and out of the bramble bushes. Well our ornithology expert said that's what they were and we believed her.
Fortified by Sainsbury's tuck shop treats we continued to Redbrook. A strange place where the locals divest themselves of clothes apparently, leaving them in the little riverside park for visitors to puzzle over.
Having been encouraged by Ben and Jerry .....whoops sorry David and Jerry to visit The Boat while we were there how could we refuse? Access by footbridge across the river we had a nice half hour contemplating the meaning of life. Well Nicky Heather and Jane did, Lorna was left contemplating when she could take the next painkillers.
