Great Dartmoor walk today for the RICS. Disappointed not to have caught it all after accidentally locking my car keys in the vehicle, along with my two dogs! Hope to be attending another event soon. all the best.

The moonlit walk was a wonderful experience. Keith is a great leader: he finds a lovely balance of personal anecdote, informative inputs on historical and natural features and just letting the group enjoy themselves. His engaging and relaxed manner conceals his levels of experience and expertise and the care he takes in choosing the routes and attending to safety, which leaves the rest of us free to simply enjoy the walk. He even managed to lay on nightjars for us!
