Head clearing walks

Left work kinda early last evening. It was cold. But I needed a long walk to clear my head and generally get some thinking done. It was actually quite good fun. I ended up getting quite lost in the middle. I hadn’t realized it earlier, because I wasn’t paying particular attention to where I was going, and more importantly, I have less sense of direction than a blind pig normal person.
