So I walked it.
Here are the pictures from my 'hoof' to see the donkeys.
1) This is the field where the donkeys are...alas not today.
2) Over on the far side of the field was this small pony.
3) At least I know where I stand.
4) A dribble of water.......not enough for Dave to get his gusset wet.
5) The Hyndburn Bridge pub - couldn't even get a drink - it was shut.
6) Scary Tree Man - I came back through Woodlands.
7) A fallen pine cone in Mercer Park.
8) Help...I' ve got this big lump on my trunk.
9) 'She went that way'...The War memorial in Mercer Park.
So I can't say I was overly impressed with my walk, or for that matter the pictures I managed to get. I wanted donkeys, so I feel a bit 'short changed'.

I went passed when I did the Mill Lane walk and the field in question was occupied by a large pack of miniature horses, with I think a few donkeys thrown in. Where do they keep vanishing too, the same happened the last time the field was full of donkeys.
