With so few boarders around at present, this evening's mild weather was a perfect excuse for a bit of a stroll with Maggie, the Fox house dog and a few volunteer expedition members. Here we see them testing a borrowed umbrella that later served as a parachute for getting off the city walls. It never actually rained...We made our way around the city, using the moats and little-known sections of the inner ramparts to keep away from roads. At Fishergate bar, the team got to interrogate a friendly member of the police, who had been drawn to us because of the unusual jackets! He soon realised his error, and was last seen taking cover behind Dick Turpin's tomb-stone, rather than take any more penetrating questions on powers of arrest, police salaries or what he had enjoyed for lunch that day...
