An artisanal handcrafted record of walks, and other adventures
So, some weird person asked if they could take a picture (probably of your dog), and then thrust a card into your mitt urging you to go the website. You are now relieved to know this isn't a scam.
This website is a collection of the walks that i've done over the years. The walks do tail off for a few years as rugby took over my life, but now that i've taken a step back the walks are starting to feature heavily again. The ones prior to autumn 2022 have generally got a poor history behind them and abysmal (if any) photographs. There may be some gear reviews, and there may be some other random walking related content.
The site doesn't use any trackers but does embed content from Youtube, Flickr, AllTrails, Hill Bagging, and Google Fonts. Amazon affiliate links may be used.

A Chihuahua Jack Russel cross. Not the best start in life, but we are making slow progress. Current November update - after an accidental kiss in 2021, we are now up to multiple kisses on two consecutive days !
An elderly bearded dragon who is adorably inquisitive.
A not as elderly, independent bearded dragon who don't need no humans (except for the supply of salad and worms)
My nickname is Moose, so if i'm walking them my hoofs are on the trail.
Nota bene regarding plurality: I am following the pattern for hoofs that is followed for sheeps, a solitary wooly boi = sheep, two or more wooly bois = sheeps.
