The Wednesday Walk 1st April 2015


The Plan
A Longham walk

Who Turned Up
Wendy, Beatrice and Tony H, David

The Walk
It’s the first day of April and I was tempted to tell you about our hundred-mile hike across the Himalayas, but who would believe me. So, what did we actually do? The forecast was for dry sunny weather in the morning and rain in the afternoon, so we decided to have a morning walk only. We met at Haskins Garden Centre for a cup of coffee and then positioned our cars at the lay-by near the Angel. The walk – along the usual route – to Longham was quiet and pleasant.
Tony had pre-positioned his car at the Bridge House. After lunch he took us back to where the other cars were parked. It had been a pleasant morning walk and lunch, and we thought we’d avoided the rain. But it didn’t rain. That Kirkwood girl got it wrong again.

The Lunch
The Bridge House Hotel at Longham. We all opted for the carvery and enjoyed full plates. As always, it was value for money.

Next Week
The meeting place: the car park at the entrance to Upton Park

The time: 1045
