You may recall that last summer the village entered the Village of the Year Competition being produced by Channel 4. Aynho was one of about 400 villages who entered and we were one of about 80 selected to take part and be filmed. Transmission of the shows started on 15 January. Aynho is part of…
Ian led the medium walkers today in bright sunshine and a cold wind. We took the Portway path and followed it down the hill and up to the concrete road. We tried to stick to the footpath, but the mud was sucking our boots off. We continued across to Souldern but rather than do the…

On a cold frosty morning eighteen of us set out in the sunshine down Green Lane, at the approach to Lower Walton Grounds we turned right and followed the track along the valley. We crunched the ice on the many large puddles until we left the track and entered the next field. We continued along…
