th Oct - perfect weather apart from a slight cool breeze
Travelling to stay with good friend Janet in
Worthing we stopped in a delightful pub for a light lunch in the village of
Findon on the North side of the South downs.
The resident hound was well known to everyone and
was a really
Happy soul.
We then drove up an
incredibly narrow lane to the South Downs and the
Cissbury Ring - an Iron age
enormous fort (earthworks).

Great views of the surrounding countryside down to
Worthing past Portsmouth as far as the Isle of Wight.
Car parking

was minimal (putting it mildly) and
Herz would not be at all impressed by some of the rutted chalk and Flint tracks
A great dog walking area. Here you can see the
village of
Findon and a tiny part of the outer ditch of the fort,
There was a person flying a radio controlled glider on the updraft. As
well as loops and rolls the breeze was so
consistent that it
could be
held stationary for as long as he wanted. The same flight was going for at least our 45 min walk.
