June 2019: Curious Cows and Camping…

Image
Cows, I’ve always considered them to be fairly docile creatures. They wander around the field chomp on some grass and generally keep themselves to themselves. Now, I don’t know if the cows on the north kent marshes are eating something they shouldn’t be, but that wasn’t how they greeted me the other day! The bloomin’ things made me wish I was carrying a spare pair of underpants. Yes, it’s time for another wild camp and this time my plan was to head back down to the marshes for a camp beside the Thames. I wanted to enjoy a nice walk, cook some nice food and take some nice photographs of the wildlife, everything was supposed to be nice. Except it wasn’t very nice at all, those sodd!ng cows scuppered my plans didn’t they! Ggrrr It’s a fairly easy, three mile walk from the nearest village to the area that I had in mind for camping and I enjoyed my little saunter down to the river. I’ve camped at this spot a few times before and you can read about those trips here and here i
