I'm glad I wore my walking boots. There may be paved paths aplenty but I keep wandering off onto sodden verges and muddy grassland like the mischievous pedestrian I am. There are trees everywhere so I've picked the perfect time to visit - the entire town is golden yellow. From the shops I've headed east through miles of open parkland, mostly empty apart from herds of untamed hounds and their less bouncy owners. There's a lot of water about, and more than one hardy soul is out waterskiing with his shaggy baggy mates. And I swear that the local magpie count is far higher than the national average - there are joyful couples everywhere. Now to hunt down a bus stop. See how long it takes me to ride back from autumn to midsummer.
