It’s the second week of good weather here in the UK.

I originally planned to take Dolly to Thetford on my day off. But plans change, the lure of staying in bed that little bit longer too strong.

In the end the choice I made was to go back to Roydon Common.

We were just going to take it easy in the “heat” and just wander round what I call the upper field.

This time we walked the part of the previous walk in reverse. Which meant we did the height gain early, and make use of a water stop for Dolly.

By the time we got to the water trough Dolly was ready to climb in for her drink. I got her bowl and scooped out some water for her.

As we continued round the upper field I saw three hares doing hare stuff like chasing each other. But Dolly was oblivious to them.

We found a shaded spot to stop and chill.

I felt it was too hot for coffee. So I didn’t break out my BushBuddy stove. Instead I had my Crystal Lite squash powder.

Dolly had more water, some biltong, and I had cheese and biscuits. Naturally Dolly also wanted what I was having too.

After our chill break we continued on with our walk.

Once back at the car I gave Dolly some more water before heading off home.
