What an ordeal for stop #15 - The Stour Valley path is a muddy bog. Persevered for 80% of it, only for a herd of cows to block my path (the rest of the field was impassable). Walked back to Bures, then along the winding, steep, country road!

Paul S: That's dedication Dan! Could you not have negotiated with the cows?
Dan Y: I made the right choice with the cows it seems - A couple at the pub arrived as I was leaving. They walked through the field as the cows were on the opposite side, but they had young calves with them; could be protective of them and dangerous to walkers.

Overly cold on serving, but stop number 17 on the Ale Trail - Should I complete in one of the Layer pubs or the Magnet, which is a 5min walk away?... Hmmm #BitterOldManDan #OperationAleTrail2024
