Programme & Walks
MONTHLY SUNDAY MORNING PHOTOGRAPHIC WALKS
As before, these walks are a get together with opportunities to take photos, have a bit of exercise and a drink or meal afterwards. They are fairly short, about 2 to 4 miles. Some will be out in the country, so there will be mud (wear decent shoes/boots), a few stiles, small hills and just possibly rain!!. I’ll be waiting at the start, so do come and please don’t be late or I might have gone. They are on the first Sunday morning of the month to help us to remember!
If you want a roast Sunday Lunch in the pub you ought to book it beforehand. Don’t forget that the safety of yourselves and your guests is your responsibility so only go where you are happy to venture!
