For the Mid Sussex Ramblers' programme, I devised this walk to be 8.5 miles. On the way we passed an old tram being filmed, which was screened on Meridian News that evening.
Everyone had their heads in the clouds when we reached the top of Chanctonbury Hill. And it was weird to look northwards, through the cloud base, into otherwise sunny areas way below us. This quasi-euphoric cloud 9 feeling was further enhanced by the very steep ups and downs to follow; a route that I selected from the map just to add a few miles and several hundred meters more up 'n down. Oh how everyone loved that sting in the tail of this walk.
