| A combined age of 280+ years but still managing to do our Wednesday walk. Both Tom and Peter had mobility problems today so we decided on a fairly easy walk from Talkin Tarn to Brampton and back. I am delighted to say that the two invalids are much better and will be walking longer walks soon. We also found a Geocache at the north end of Talkin Tarn which John greeted with much enthusiasm. Tom was the finder of the small cache hanging from a Holly Tree. |

| Three vandals probably about to throw stones at a passing train. |
 |
| Brampton Station which is almost a mile from the town. |
 |
| From Brampton Station into the town we took the route of an old disused railway track. It was flanked on both sides by huge numbers of trees laden with fruit of all kinds and will be of great value to any visiting birds this coming winter. |

| A Crab Apple Tree with a lot of lovely looking fruit on it. |

| On our way back to Talkin Tarn we passed this lovely collection of trees on the top of a small hill. After our 2 hour 5 mile walk we had lunch in the nice cafe at Talkin Tarn. A lovely walk with plenty good crack as we had not all been together for a few weeks. Our friends Niall & Elspeth are now en route back to Australia so they will be missing form our Wednesday walks until next April. |
