This was the key weekend for the walk - planned with
some precision, weeks in advance, ensuring the other
walks finished at the right time. We booked to stay
overnight in Pangbourne, so on Saturday morning I
took two buses and Sue took three trains to get to
Henley. We met in front of the Wind in the Willows
museum, and set out on a fine sunny day.

Our
backpacks were a bit heavier than on previous stages,
as we needed a change of clothing and wash bag etc.
However, travelling light was something Sue and I were
used to in previous decades, so it gave us a chance
to reminisce. |
