Unfortunately due to weather conditions of high winds and rain our pre Christmas Lunch walk was cancelled!
We arrived for lunch at 1pm. It was lovely to see 29 members enjoying their Christmas lunch with much chatter and laughter.

Unfortunately we had to cancel the walk due to
high winds and rain!
Ten members braved the weather and
met at the church to a very warm welcome and had a really good time.
There was the usual delicious
selection of savouries and cakes with hot and cold drinks. Raffles and
Christmas gifts.
The theme was ‘Christmas Bells’ and we sang
Christmas carols whilst ringing the small hand bells and joined by the sounds
of an accordion.
The Golden Hare Morris Dancers
entertained us and much to their delight we joined in a dance with them!

“It's always wonderful to welcome
you all back. Thanks for your continued support.
Merry Christmas and a blessed
2025!”
This 4.8 mile walk was led by Janet & John
Ten of us met at the Forest Centre on the outskirts of Marston Moretaine . We were lucky with the weather as it had rained overnight but mild and dry for the walk. We walked 3/4 way around the nature reserve then headed off past the sailing club to the top of the lake. We were not able to do the full circuit as a bridge has been closed for some time with no date for repair.
We had a short coffee stop then retraced our steps and finished walking round the nature reserve back to the car park. Not a challenging walk by any means but basically not too muddy and everyone enjoyed being outside and having a good chat. Six of us then enjoyed refreshments in the cafe.
