WEEK END IN FEBRUARY

Sorry no pics, no one took a camera today. Just an update.

On Saturday 6th Feb, 8 people went on a circular walk led by Mervyn which was different and a bit shorter than the publised one due to the muddy conditions. It went from Old Linslade along the canal past the Three Locks included a pub lunch and was about 8 miles long.

Again on Sunday another 13 people walked from the car park in Woburn on a 5 mile walk. It started off a bit misty and it was a fairly grey day (typical February), but it was reasonably mild, the countryside was attractive, as usual the company was good and everyone said they enjoyed themselves (including another new face). Once again the walk was adjusted by Dave our leader due to the suspicion of very difficult walking through muddy ploughed fields - we all decided better safe than sorry!

On writing this, there are also 18 walkers in Sherwood Forest on a Bogtrotters weekend away, who have also reported a good hostel, varied walking, plenty of camarderie, and great eating places! Not bad if you do the maths, even with 3 of the Saturday walkers also out on Sunday we had 33 different people out walking with the club over the 2 days!
