Today it’s the Aston on Trent village walk. Aston on Trent
is where I was brought up so I’ve done this walk many times and now only return
when my old friend from way back at nursery school is back in the area and
doing it too. We really ought to meet up at other times of the year rather than
rely on meeting up here, which only happens every other year or so when we’re both not working.
Perhaps this year we will.
The full walk is just over four miles although there are four
escape routes off it that offer short cuts. Having both dogs with me, one of
which is the fifteen year old Doggo, I have my eye on these but Doggo impressively
manages the full distance. There’s life in the old goat yet.
I have to rush off a bit afterwards as there is a match. The
Boxing Day fixture arrives a day late as Derby face a Rowett-less Birmingham
City. I think everyone will be pleased that we scraped a 1-0 win leaving new
manager Gianfranco Zola still searching for his first point.
