Saturday 24th September 2011

Honor and I set off from Washington a bit later than planned ... heading for Fulking.  These photographs are taken close to Chanctonbury Ring.


Local legend has it that Chanctonbury Ring was created by the Devil and that he can be summoned by running around the clump of trees seven times anti-clockwise. When he appears he will offer you a bowl of soup in exchange for your soul. The Ring is also rumoured to increase fertility in women who sleep underneath the trees for one night.


We found some gigantic mushrooms.
Honor wasn't feeling full of beans and kept wanting to lie down!


So we didn't quite make it to Fulking ... but walked up the River Adur to Bramber in search of lunch.  Sadly it was only a bag of crisps and a drink, followed up by cakes from the bakery in Steyning.

For the first time we took a bus back to the car.  Then drove on to see Granny P at Ilex Farm.
