I think the hardest thing about my convalescence is that I can't put my boots on and head into the autumn countryside for a good walk. The weather is perfect for walking. The leaves are changing colour. The woods will have that smell particular to this time of year. The light starts to fade earlier and earlier, soon walks will have to be planned so we can finish in daylight. A pub to warm chilled fingers and toes will be, if not a necessity, a welcome luxury. Fortunately I have lots of photographs of walks taken, and I can enjoy those, though obviously they are no substitute for the real thing. They whet my appetite though, and I look forward to walks where my corrected foot does not hurt by the end of the day.
