First time back on Twitter in a long time - walked my first #SlowWays today from Reading to Aldermaston (Aldrea1) and posted my first review and survey. Hoping to walk all the routes out of Reading in the coming weeks.

And my #SlowWays route was also a great route for wildlife spotting - 31 species of wild flowers, 28 species of bird seen (and many more heard), and 4 species of butterfly. The highlight was this little egret

Very briefly back on Twitter… On 8 January I’ll be cutting my hair off (hopefully about 40cm!) to donate to the Little Princess Trust Little Princess Trust, which makes real hair wigs for children who have lost their hair. Please consider supporting me – thank you!! tinyurl.com/ykzfervt

Hair today, gone tomorrow - literally! Only one day left until I have my hair cut off to donate to the Little Princess Trust Little Princess Trust I've been making the most of it before it all disappears. Please consider supporting me at tinyurl.com/ykzfervt Thank you!

The Big Day!!! Lots of hair for Little Princess Trust If you want to support their work please donate at justgiving.com/fundraising/Gr…
