I've started so I'll finish [DotD - 23.3.2020]

« on: March 22, 2020, 13:35:09 »

When I got off the train just over a week ago, my intention was to have a short look around the town

and a lovely town it is too:

Seeing the hill behind the town, I walked up a little into the trees to get a view:

And ... as I had started, I felt I may as well finish and carried on to the top:

I did not start with the intention of reaching the top. I did not start with the intention of going all the way. But then ... I'd started and so I might as well finish. And actually I really enjoyed that, got plenty of fresh air, and probably ended up with a greater fulfilment at the end of the day than I would have had from original plans.

So - what did members start as a "little project" that rather took over??

That must be Great Malvern. When I was there last autumn, it rained torrentially for the whole visit, so didn't get a chance to do any long walks, but have been up to the top in the past.

Riding my bike to Malvern, up through the town, over the top and then back home via Ledbury was a project that took up the whole day. But that had been the intention, so doesn't answer the question!
