This weekend my friend and colleague, Emma, took me onto the moor and taught me how to navigate. We found our way up 5 different Tors. Although the moor was busy with people training for the Ten Tors, we still found a few secluded spots. My thanks go to Emma for teaching me and providing me with a few much needed snacks. We were lucky enough to see loads of wildlife including woodpeckers, cuckoos and lizards! No snakes luckily although I hear they were about.
Made it!

After this walk I got the bug so today I decided to find a Tor of my own: Scarey Tor. Turns it that it wasn't scary at all and even on a grey day the views were pretty good.

Cleeve Hill Circular

I have just realised that I haven't blogged for a while so thought I better catch up.

I had a lovely few days celebrating Easter at home. Mum and Bethany joined me on a fantastic walk up and around Cleeve Hill which provided fantastic views all the way to the Severn Bridge, Wales and the Midlands. We were lucky enough to watch a plane fly below us as well! Thank you Mum and Bethany for keeping me going throughout the holidays.
