Lovely little walk. Parked at the House of Bruar (very posh loos...but coachloads of old ladies in there). The walk followed Bruar Water directly North. A very strange-shaped couple kept popping up (he had the palest weediest legs imaginable and his lady wife had a stomach to rival Mr Pumblechook) but odd couple aside we enjoyed a lovely walk, climbing the whole time. Managed to photograph a red squirrel after spotting another couple staring at a tree. Being a nosey parker, I stopped to see what had their attention and discovered the squirrel. Nice downhill all the way back. Walked by Sarah, David and Alice
