Bit stressed today - I need to have a break and get some fresh air today so I decided to go back to the woods I walk for many years as a child/teenager.
Surprising how everything looks smaller, the long paths arn't so long, the grassed areas arn't so big.
Anyway I am wondering through with my camera - looking for a nice view or fallen tree or something when 6 youths (I thing it's spelt yobs) starting shouting abuse "hey nunce, what you doing with a camera" they were about 50 yards away so I decided the best thing was to ignore it. So I continued on and the abuse continued. I continued to ignore it an carried on. The next thing were some stones coming in my direction. The shouting continued but they were getting further away.
I decided to continue walking and take the long route back.
Now I should post that brilliant shot that made it all worthwhile - but I wasn't in the mood.
To think that I used to walk the same woods all days with no trouble at all.
There would have been a time when I would have faced someone down - but not nowadays ....
No I won't be going back on my own.
