Two main points I have taken away from today’s training walk:

1. Never, ever, trust the weather forecast.  No matter how many sunny pictures the Met Office puts on the day’s prediction page, as things currently stand, you will ALWAYS get a thorough soaking.

2. When peeing in a field, never forget that tractors are much taller than cars and can watch at painfully close and recognisable quarters as they cruise excruciatingly slowly past the hedge.

I shall carry these learning points forward to tomorrow’s much longer walk.  And I shall take a different route, far away from the farms I frequented today.  Just in case.
