IF you’re like me, you won’t have been particularly aware that, in the era BC (that is, Before Covid), a “chalk walk” was a thing. For us, the uninitiated, a chalk walk is one in which you and, perhaps, a companion (or, Before Covid, companions plural) take a walk, stopping occasionally to make chalk markings on pavements and walls. These markings can be directions (“turn left at the chip shop”), instructions (“roar like a lion”) or, simply, life-affirming reflections or observations (“this too shall pass”). Alternatively, a chalk walk can be an outlet for your artistic instincts (a drawing of a flower, say).
