One Day at a Time

A group of walkers from the Wessex Mountaineering Club met George on Sunday 24th November before setting off on their walk. Very interesting chat about the village. Keep up the good work! We look forward to returning soon.

George was interested in my newly published book (£7.99) about a 1,000 mile cycle ride I did from Dorset to Dundee. Details on http://www.enidfookes.com:

Ride & Stride

biking

Ride and Stride: 10.00 a.m. to 3.00 p.m. on 14th Sep 2013.
Help raise money for your local historic churches Stourpaine, Durweston and Pimperne by doing a sponsored tour of nearby Dorset churches.

RAISE MONEY FOR DORSET’S HISTORIC CHURCHES

Nearly every church in the county will be open to visit, and the newly opened Trailway will make it safe and fun for all ages. Visit as many churches as you like on foot, bicycle or horseback. If you want to join the fun, speak to your churchwarden to get an entrant pack and then get some sponsors.

If all that sounds a bit too much like hard work for you, all three churches need support crews to sign sponsorship forms for the visitors and top them up with water, orange squash and flapjacks on their way round. If you can spare an hour or two to volunteer on the 14th of September, please get in touch with your churchwarden:

  • Stourpaine 451129 Chris Brown
  • Durweston 450102 Lesley Bryning
  • Pimperne 459593 Richard Ashwell

Trailway Walk

There are links to the Stour Valley Way, The Wessex Ridgeway, The Jubilee
Trail, and Hod and Hambledon Hills. Open Access land and nature reserves and woods such as Piddles Wood and Blandford Forest are within easy walking distance of the Trailway.
