On Sunday 11th April Gill and I did a circuit in the lanes north west of Redhills. From the top of Redhills we went along Rowethorn Road, to the Waddles Down Radio transmitter. We then headed for home via Whitstone Church, Nadder Bottom and Nadderwater.

Although it was a lovely sunny day, there was a bitter north wind. It was only when we stopped in a gateway, near the top of Waddles Down. Too enjoy the views north of Crediton, that we realised how much protection, we were getting from the good old Devon Hedges in the narrow lanes.

On Tuesday 13th April we met up with fellow WAGs members, at the Grand Western Canal. There were 7 mobility scooters, accompanied by 2 walkers. We set off from the Canal Basin in glorious sunshine, but within an hour it had clouded over. Despite it being cold we all enjoyed being out as a group, we naturally tend to spread out, so social distancing is not a problem.
