Wonderfully clever mural of books on shelves and books open to read painted on a building housing (of course) a bookstore in Lyon, France.

A yellow rose in a garden in Winchcombe, England, one of the towns we stayed in during our 5-day walk through the Cotswolds. It had rained on us the day before and the rose still had water drops on it the next morning.

The site is Hayles Fruit Farm, near Winchcombe in the Cotswolds. Fire pits, lovely site, well managed and quiet, highly recommended. Great dark skies, saw a few late Perseids whilst sitting out around the campfire with narshmallows and cider made at the adjoining farm.

Today my partner's eldest son and I spent a bit of time together, walking the Cotswold Way from Hailes Abbey to Cleeve Common via Winchcombe and Belas Knap long barrow, a reprise of the route I walked a few weeks ago. Just under 10 miles in beautiful weather.

The last hillfort site that I visited was on Cleeve Common, en route from Cheltenham to Belas Knap, on a weekend hike and camp inspired by your Winchcombe video. Where are you sending me next? šŸ¤”
