The first walk of the year starting 1000 mile challenge.  Rained overnight so route muddy and waterlogged on Effingham Common. At least after the boots got muddy, the waterlogged grass of Effingham Common cleaned them off. To have the whole process repeated right to the end of the walk. Route Orestan lane to woodland trust to Effingham Junction via Effingham Common across to Bookham common and return. Walk based on one from Fancy Free walks website.
