Strolling in the Surrey Hills

I went on a really delightful training walk today with the Time Out Saturday Walkers club. It started at Milford station and ended about 6 and a half hours later in Haslemere. I think it was about 10 miles or so but we did have to climb the Devil's Punch Bowl (it's Surrey HILLS remember) and we might have spent some time in the Three Horseshoes Pub (churlish not to, some people were tired....) - ok, yes, we were pretty slow. But I met some interesting people and learnt some essential general knowledge; ie: 'Thursday' comes from Thor's day (he of Norse God fame, his Dad being Woden... hence Wednesday) Am I the only person who didn't know that? And, that if you turn off your video player at the mains every night (crucial for saving the planet it seems) you won't have to re-programme the date and clock every time you switch it back on. And some unprintable stuff about Tom Cruise from an actor who knows him. Can you believe what a wide range of topics can be touched on while trudging the Greens Sands Way? Most importantly, I didn't ache at all for the whole walk... is this progress?
