| In our efforts to get Tom back to fitness this weeks Wednesday walk would be just under 5 miles and the longest yet for Tom. We did the 2 car trick and left Peter's car at Hollows and took mine to the Kerr wood. We followed the old Drove Road to Old Irving and then along the old A7. It was downhill all the way and the west to east direction was very fortunate as the driving rain and wind was at our backs and not in our face. It was not wet for too long and we finished the walk with lunch in The Buccleuch Centre. |

| The area all round this old road is now being planted with trees so in a few years time there will be loads of trees and no moorland views |
 |
| Soon it will be all trees. |
