Soaked on Jeffrey Hill

After the trials of the past few months I thought we'd have a stroll on Jeffrey Hill this afternoon. There were plenty of dogs on leads signs around, and even more sheep!  Sadly the heavens opened pretty much as soon as we left the car.  What in the past had been a gentle stroll up to the trig was tortuous in the rain, and sodden underfoot, so quickly defeated we just mooched around a while getting drenched, before heading back to the car and a blast of the heater on full.  If anything, a lesson that even the gentlest walk can be tough in certain circumstances, and I think I'll now stick to the park in the rain!
