On Sunday afternoon 21st April 7 ladies met by the Canal at the end of
Campbell Park.
The car park was very busy because
there was a scouting jamboree taking place in the Park. We could
hear the sound of beating drums in the distance. It was very cold –
not the lovely spring day we had hoped for.

We set out to walk up the left hand
side of the park towards Central Milton Keynes. On the way we met
hundreds of scouts and guides of all ages – all marching to the beat of the
drums.
It warms ones heart to see the enthusiasm shown by all
the children and leaders.

At the Centre we all headed for a
warm-up in La Tour Hotel. On the 14th Floor we could see
far and wide across a very noticeably “green” Milton Keynes. The
trees were fresh and green but regrettably the daffodils had gone
over. We enjoyed a refreshing cuppa and a sociable chat.
The walk back down the other side of
the park was very slow – I think we had become so relaxed in the
Hotel. Everybody said they had enjoyed their Sunday Afternoon
Stroll – including one newcomer.
