Penshurt. Sunday 11 January

Amber took us to Penshurst for a one way walk between two railway stations in brilliant sunshine and through icey fields. This thoroughly rural outing was made all the more wild by the inclusion of two dogs, though Lizzie's Inca was significantly more mischevious than Dave's pedigree pet (who needed so little commanding I forgot his name). After a hearty meal in Penshurst's Leicester Arms we split. Christina, Amber and I went cross country with just a bicycle lamp as guide in the very dark and muddy fields. For most of this section we felt lost but miraculously ended up being spat out onto a road from a muddy track barely a few strides from our target branchline station, and only a few minutes from our train home.

Little did we know that at the time the 'official' Moonwalkers were wandering around Penshurst so was the occasional moonwalker Tim and his 18 month year old offspring by complete and spontaneous coincidence. It's remarkable we didn't actually bump into each other. It must have been the moon drawing us together.
