Day 3 of stunning weather. Isn’t it sad that I can remember specifically days when the weather has been fine. More pathetically is that when we have good weather it totally dictates our lives. The urge to do something, anything, as long as it is outside is almost too much pressure! Arrrgggghhhh.
Exercise. That’s always the first choice anyway. We decided to do the Avon Gorge Trail again but this time get to the end. Stunning day, plenty of bikes on the trail darn it and 3 hours later we completed it. Hooray! Can I just say that 4 miles in when you finally get to Pill. There is NOTHING there!!! No loo, no picnic tables, just a farm gate and tragically bread clogged pond in which, if there were any resident ducks, they would have long since died from binge eating.
We also decided to have a look at the new Cabot Circus mall that opened up last month. Not bad for a gazillion dollar mall in Bristol of all places? All the posh brand names are there, the stores look great although you can clearly see that the workmanship on the build was rushed and doesn’t seem to be holding up so far to the million or so people that have visited to date.
Finally, here is a pic that Steve captured on our walk.
