Thank you to everyone who went on the long walk to Calke Abbey. We all enjoyed a beautiful walk on 7th May, it was a pleasant day, just right for walking, with stunning views.
We walked to Staunton Harald, which incidentally carrying on from our talk on charities, was once owned by Sue Ryder. We walked on through Calke Abbey where we stopped for a well-earned cup of tea. Not only were the views magnificent, but the woods were carpeted with a sea of Bluebells, which looked amazing. There were new born lambs and calves in the fields giving the walk a real Spring feel to it. We also saw a lot of bird life, including Sparrow Hawk and Buzzard. Let’s hope it continues and we get a long, hot Summer.
