@DougF1964 @penny_short The trouble with a bin, Doug, is that someone has to empty it and from experience, that’s not a pleasant task. But it shouldn’t be necessary.

@RaymondPurvis By the same artist, at Beverley Minster a few weeks ago

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@RaymondPurvis Hi Ray. Walked the diversion through the Stanley Plantation to the Errington Cafe on Monday on a circular from Stagshaw Bank. Spotless!! Thanks.

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@DougF1964 Yes indeed, Doug. I’m on duty at The Sill on Sunday and passing the Gap will be hard for me too. I was in Beverley Minster marvelling at Gaia, the rotating earth by Luke Jerram who made the Moon currently in Hexham Abbey when I heard the news. Gut wrenching.

@RaymondPurvis Ooh, I haven’t found a vape yet. 😡

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@HWpath And here you, Cedric and Ben are having lunch in the van whilst I’m on my monthly Trail check. Also a picture of empty cases of cider and cans at Matfen Piers which, bizarrely had gone when I went to remove them later!

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@robsonandcowan @Wimbledon Warkworth?

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@RaymondPurvis Quick work 😀

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@RaymondPurvis @HWpath And thank you for your company. A good catch up and chin wag!😊
Also for hand painted wooden acorn flanked by the two replacement acorns.

Monthly trail check. Bumped into 40 people walking 25 miles in aid of the Great North Children’s Hospital. Plus 3 from Dorset who loved the walk in 2021 and are back repeating it. Not much litter but vegetation rampant. Moles have been active near the Robin Hood😡 #HWpath

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@RaymondPurvis Ray, I have two that are in need of refurbishment. DM me and we can meet at the Errington for a coffee perhaps.

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@mclo_Bridger @HWpath The wall is beneath the road to the right of the hedge.

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@HWpath Great stuff Gary and Cedric. 😊👍

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@LondonFire Well done for rescuing three crows at the Barbican, trapped on a balcony for 24 hours. 😊

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@HWpath I don’t think so. More likely on my section near Matfen Piers on the Military Road, west of the Robin Hood PH.

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@RaymondPurvis Ray, the two Swiss guys I met yesterday were very complimentary about the diversion. I think they meant it! 😀

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

Monthly trail check. 4 HW walkers, 2 from Switzerland and 2 from Germany. 2 bags of rubbish - usual selection, Costa, McDonalds and Red Bull. So not from walkers. Checked the stamping point at the Robin Hood and 20th path anniversary stamp. #HWpath #hadrianswall #nationaltrail

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@HWpath But from tomorrow, Cumberland?

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@TyneSnapper @JimMcMaster11 @TheSill @HWpath @RaymondPurvis I think you’ll find that is not correct. But you can buy an annual pass for £50 or a daily one for £10 from The Sill.

[David Weissand @dew18willow]

@HWpath Hi Cedric. Dave from Wallington here. All the best in your new job and hope to see you near the Robin Hood soon.
