New Year, new leaf

Determined to start the New Year as I meant to go on I joined a like-minded group of fellow locals on a forage yesterday with Rupert Burdock. It was a magical day - a three hour walk, followed by an amazing meal. I honestly didn't think we'd find very much given the season, but Rupert is a fount of knowledge and we found a basketful of a variety of delicious mushrooms along with a glorious array of herbs and 'greens'. A highly recommended activity for all the family which I'll be doing again in the not too distant future!
