The Weald and Downland Open Air Museum is a sort of building-museum. Old buildings get dismantled from where they might have been demolished or neglected and rebuilt here.
Colwick Country Park, July 2001
A walk around Colwick Country Park with the family (including Jake the dog)
Fishbourne
On Saturday 20th(?) January 2001 the weather was very clear (and so quite cold), but after doing the weekly shop decided I couldn't miss this opportunity and decided to walk to Fishbourne from Chichester. Perhaps going in my flying jacket and trainers was a little inadvisable after all the rain we'd had in previous months - although there hadn't been much rain in recent days, the fields were still completely saturated with water and early optimistic sod-hopping (jumping from tuft of grass to tuft of grass to try and stay out of the water) soon gave way to trudging along with wet and muddy feet. I think it was well worth it in the end though.
