Just got back from dancing with the Hunt at Mardyke Woods for Halloween.

It's nice that were getting all these bookings from the forestry commission, but Mardyke wasn't the nicest place to dance. I think it was because the event was in one corner of the forest, which was directly behind a council estate.

The last place we dance with them was up in Romford at Harold Court Woods which was much better. Bit odd as woods go though, because being only 2 years old it didn't really have any trees.

Maybe it's my up bringing, but when I think of woods or forest I think more of places like Whinlatter, Grizedale or Dodd Wood.

Then again, maybe I'm just being a Yockel and should accept that there aren't going to be nice woods inside the M25...
