We enjoyed a lovely walk in the sun, parked in the layby on Latchmoor off the A337 by the Filly Inn and walked towards Setly Pond where we saw men playing with their boats. It made such a change walking in the warm sun after the previous wet days. Arriving back at our cars we then walked to Setley Ridge Vineyard to enjoy tea and cake at the Daisy Tea garden and again enjoyed sitting outside in the sun having a long chat putting the world to right.....

The weather forecast was not looking good but all went well! We left Woodside Car Park at 10:30 exiting the park entrance at Poles Lane then off towards Eight Acre Pond, where we spotted some little ones swimming with Mum and Dad! We then carried on along the sea wall, spotting various birds in between all the chat! A heron standing tall and pride on one leg and lots of egrets.
We decided not to venture down the steps on to the foot path across Oxey Marsh but continue round the sea wall to go down the path to pass Oxey Barn. Then along the road pass the Chequers Pub eventually arriving back at Woodside car park. Of course we then crossed the grass to stop at Woodside Sports Cafe (well worth a visit), for cake and coffee and chatted for half an hour, about everything and nothing! Another enjoyable Hordle WI mornings walk with lots of chat and of course refreshments at the end!
