Today’s forecast thought it would be cloudy from about 11am – but like yesterday, it wasn’t quite accurate. The sun shone from a clear blue sky all day! In fairness to the Met Office, their cloud map suggested we would be close to the edge of a large area of cloud, and happily today we were the right side of the edge. It was good to be out in the morning anyway, and I suspect Ironbridge, on our route back to the start, would have been much busier this afternoon – well worth avoiding!

… and that’s it for 2025. Happy New Year everyone! “Let’s hope it’s a good one…”
