This morning I went for a country stroll Saw greenery of summer at its best But off road walking had taken its toll So the next stop was an Inn for a rest . Ploughman's I ordered with a pint of beer I took a seat and watched folk come and go The sounds of banter and talk I could hear Background music playing easy and slow. I finished lunch and left by the main door A shame to leave such merriment behind And tempted I was to just have one more But the home journey I still had to find. I looked at my map then got on my way Making the most of this warm summer day. Written 20th July 2019. (A ploughman's lunch is an English cold meal of bread, cheese, onions and meat, usually accompanied by butter and pickles. As its name suggests, it is most commonly eaten at lunchtime, is particularly associated with pubs, and often accompanied with beer.) (The Cotswolds is an area in south central and south west England comprising the Cotswold Hills, a range of rolling hills that rise from the meadows of the upper Thames to an escarpment, known as the Cotswold Edge, above the Severn Valley and Evesham Vale. The area is defined by the bedrock of Jurassic limestone that creates a type of grassland habitat rare in the UK and that is quarried for the golden-coloured Cotswold stone. It contains unique features derived from the use of this mineral; the predominantly rural landscape contains stone-built villages, historical towns and stately homes and gardens.
