The Fox. On Wednesdays they do a two for one main course offer for senior citizens!

| Other notes | Because of the atrocious weather recently it has been difficult to get out to recce a new walk so I decided to keep it simple and repeat a local one. Wherever we walk it is going to be very muddy so come well prepared with gaiters and poles! |
As a result of some of the discussions at the AGM the committee decided to update the walk details template. Hopefully this will then give prospective walkers all the information they need to decide if they want to join the walk.
