Protest



The photos are of our walk this morning which took us around Woodlands. The specific objective was to get a better feel concerning the proposed excavation of sand and gravel from the area around Clump Hill. I have actually got some idea of the access points, the site for digging and the potential for damage to the local environs, including the tranquillity of the area.

As a result, I have  now completed a comments form on the site requesting feedback ahead of Monday's deadline. We will see what happens next.

Tomorrow is scheduled for a demonstration against the arrival of an oil rig off Poole Bay set for Monday. We will be joining hundreds of others showing our feelings about another potentially damaging development in the locality.

Other activities today included a 4 mile run, 4 mile walk round Woodlands (11 miles covered today according to the app), cooking lentil soup, red cabbage and pea curry, lentil dahl, curried swede and rock cakes and flapjacks. A productive afternoon. I was pleased to get further on with the novel, hitting the 2500 word mark.
