This was a figure of eight walk; 5miles plus 5 miles lead by Francis. Right is the panoramic view from near the Jack and Jill windmills.

What a horror!

To me, it looks like this dew pond is full of Parrot's feather -- an alien invader, which is doing to Sussex eutrophic waters what Japanese knot weed and Rhododendrons are doing to other habitats. Ugh!

The second, afternoon 5 miles sounded great. Yet walking with ex-colleague Mark Howarth and putting the business-world to rights in The Hassocks Hotel had a greater draw for us after lunch. Thanks to Francis for a great walk, even if we only did half.
