Betty and Wilma soon got re-acquainted with Meg and it quickly became time to head off for an afternoon walk. Kirsty had planned a stroll up the the 'rec' recreation grounds, over to the moor top, around the tops and down to Jeruselum Farm and back along the river to the village. One thing for sure; Its bloody steep in Yorkshire!

It was a really lovely day and if I wasnt so bloody knackered climbing up to the top I would have remembered to take a photograph! Plenty of swimming for the doggits, although Meg was not quite as keen as Betty and Wilma to dive in the water. A real mix of moorland, woods, riversides, and lanes it was a really lovely few hours on saturday; especially as we took a well earned pause in the 'Lord Nelson' for a pint. We revisited part of the walk again in reverse on the Sunday followed by an ace brekkie brunch before heading back home!

Kirsty introduced us to a great walking app for the iPhone during our visit. Its called 'Footsteps' and is a nice little app to monitor walks like the one we did - especially if your interested in pedometer functions, calories burnt, and distance travelled. It is quite customisable to your specific weight, step length etc which makes it more accurate. it also allows you to graph your progress over time which looked good! at 59p it was must buy for us! You can also listen to your iPhones music through the app while you walk (or jog!). Here are the two screen shots of the weekends expeditions;
