We have been away, walking for a couple of days in the New Forest staying overnight at the [The Mailman's Arms](https://web.archive.org/web/20040120222002/http://www.mailmans-arms.co.uk/) in the High St at Lyndhurst in Hampshire. We had a fantastic time visiting many local places and sampling the local brews. Excellent!

On Friday we drove down to [Beaulieu](https://www.beaulieu.co.uk) and walked to [Bucklers Hard](https://bucklershard.co.uk) along the Beaulieu river had a pint and watched the river traffic go by. We then walked back to Beaulieu and had a cream tea. We then drove to Calshot where the Schneider Trophy Air Race was held in 1931. The water out to the Isle of White was full of yachts and inshire the sailborders and more dramatically the kite surfers were literally flying in the strong winds. On to Lyndhurst and the Pub. More later!
