Hot Dog

Thorne and Hatfield moors are off limits to free running dogs until August 1st. This is to protect the very many ground nesting birds on the moors. So for the last week I took the dog for a 6 hour walk on Thorne moors, mapping the paths as we went. This is one of the old canals built by the Dutch engineers in the 19th century to allow for the extraction of peat. That activity ceased at the turn of this century, so the canals are now a useful cooling down facility for hot dogs.
