It will be tough with highs and lows but with Kirsty being there she always brings a smile to our faces, she always lifts our spirits with her wit and enthusiasm and with the knowledge that we will be raising approx £4,000 for Cancer Research UK. in memory of Barbara, I know we shall be dipping our boots in the North Sea filled with pride and emotion.
Worcestershire Beacon is next.
Looking South from the Beacon, a long way to go!
On our way to Hangman Hill and Midsummer Hill we can look back to see where we have been.

The tower houses a plaque that thanks Charles Morris who solely funded the project in 1836.
With the trip looming ever closer we took to the Malvern Hills for some hard hill walking. The full length of the Malvern ridge and back proved to be a good and tough workout. Thankfully we did it and woke up the next morning with no aches or pains, just proving the huge Improvement in our fitness.
The View East from North hill on a beautiful morning.
Looking back at North hill where we started at the quarry car park Jane studies the topograph and hopes I know where to go
After crossing the top of Jubilee Hill and Black Hill the Iron Age fort and Hereford Beacon are getting close.
Our return journey, with heavy legs and hot feet, we took the easier path but visited the very top of Worcestershire Beacon for a second time hoping for a photo opportunity where no one else was in shot.
Almost back to the carpark we visit the Mavern clock tower where water tanks were built to provide the village with a constant water supply.
A great day and our total raised now stands at £3,748.50p
