Went for a short walk last Friday around and up The Cloud near Congleton. A pleasant evening stroll with my mate Mark and his two collie dogs (who walked about 25 times farther than we did!).
Great views from top - the pictures really don't do them justice. Truly 360 degrees looking across the Cheshire plain, south through Stoke and east to Derbyshire. It was a reasonably clear evening but it must be spectacular on a really clear day (must do it again).
See the pictures for an allround panoramic view - albeit split into several photos. Popular spot for remote control gliders along with the real life birds of prey.
If you get the chance do go for this pleasant stroll - pair of boots is best as there are some rocky bits, but it only takes 60 to 90 minutes to complete so can be done in an evening easily, just like we did.
To complete the walk we went for a pleasant pub meal at the Bear's Claw in Brereton not too far away - lovely food.
Of course all this was very inspiring for the writing gland (you didn't know about the writing gland? I'll get around to that another time), and it's in full swing now (particularly as nearly half the year has gone and I haven't had a sausage published yet!!)
