Day 361 - Boxing Day Orienteering

Bill came over to join us today for our traditional Boxing Day walk. Mum and Dad bought him a compass for his birthday in November so he was under strict instructions to bring it with him so we could show him how to use it! His friends had found it very amusing that his girlfriend's parents had bought him a compass but when you're going out with someone who's parents are keen walkers and in the guide/scout movement you can't expect anything less! We have an orienteering route in our local woods so after lunch we went out for a walk and to teach Bill how to use his compass. He did really well and we ended up at the pub so I was happy!
