Linford Bottom in the New Forest, Tuesday
Hi Russell, I live in the New Forest - another place that people pay money to go and see. Despite the lack of mountains, to walk here every morning I count myself very lucky, but I'd still rather be in the Lake District! I love your site, I visit it every day to get my fix. What an inspired idea! All the best Rowena, Ringwood
