\"\"Part one of the tale of our walk from Easton on the Hill to Stamford (and of course back) was published here<\/a> complete with a few jolly pictures along the way.\u00a0 \u00a0So now here I am with the concluding episode which for the sake of argument I am calling part two.\"\"<\/p>\n

Now the fact is that in part one we were up on high, gradually looking downwards onto the lesser mortals in the lower levels, but now by this part of our tale, we had ourselves reached those lower levels and found that some of the local residents had got quite above themselves, building all sorts of \"\"grand houses.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, they have left some of the grassland around the river as, well, grassland, and thus we exercised our right (as any stout citizen of our nation would do) by walking across the grass.\u00a0 And thereupon some of us undertook the consumption of ice \"\"cream, and jolly refreshing it was too.<\/p>\n

But then of course there was nothing for it but to make the climb back up to our starting point at Easton on the hill – a clumb of 53,000 feet (according to my trigonometry, although I might be wrong).\u00a0 \u00a0And it was really only at this moment that I actually realised that the name “Easton on the hill” (from whence we began our walk) \"\"was not just a fancy name but actually a literal description.<\/p>\n

And what a hill it was, although of course I made no fuss and ploughed forth valiantly (as us creative types say) and yes, actually made it back to the top of the hill.<\/p>\n

But what I don’t understand is why we\u00a0\"\"have to have so many hills in this country.\u00a0 I mean what is the point of them?\u00a0 \u00a0They don’t do anything except make people want to sit down, and indeed, sitting down was what we actually did at the end of the walk.<\/p>\n

But to be truthful, it really was a good walk, even with the hill.<\/p>\n

Pictures and story by Tony Attwood.\u00a0 Details of our next walks and how to join Peterborough Ramblers can be found here<\/a>.\u00a0 \u00a0If you’ve not been on one of our walks, I do hope you might come along – but please do note it is a rule of the club that you do have to book in first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
