Real Ale Appreciation Christmas Meal
Our next meet up will be on Friday 9th December in the Frank Hornby at 1pm. We will be picking food from the main menu so no need to pre-book your meal. It would be helpful though if you could let me know if you are coming along by ringing 07801 656570 or text me.
There will be no meet up in November.
Sunday Strollers- Autumn Leaves
Sylvia Roberts led the walk this Sunday from West Kirkby, to Thurston along the Wirral Way and then back along the sea front to West Kirkby. A 6.2 mile walk. Everyone agreed it had been a great walk, with plenty of variety. A young couple agreed to take a photo for us and even shook the over hanging tree so the leaves fell at the appropriate time. The group are doing a local walk next month on 20th November followed by lunch/coffee at Scrummies. We are meeting in January to plan our walks for next year and some of the members have agreed to lighten the load and share leading walks, this will help to keep the group going. Groups should be aiming for group members to each do a little which saves a few doing it all, which results in a win win for everyone. If you are interested in joining this group please contact John or Brenda McKenzie for further details on 0151 531 0207.

2017 – NEW YEAR- NEW DAY TRIP
We will be paying a visit to the ancient Roman Village of Ribchester, one of the most popular villages in Lancashire, set on the River Ribble. The local Museum traces the history of the area and Roman occupation. A recent archaeological dig unearthed the remains of a Roman Fort. The village is well worth strolling round with a good selection of shops, cafes, art gallery, roman baths etc. There is also a small Garden Centre which is well stocked with plants and has a collection of cabins selling various goods. With a nice cafe on site it is a good venue for morning coffee
Onto the comfortable family owned Ferraris Country House Hotel in Lancashire, which is set in beautiful grounds, where we will have a delicious 3 course lunch followed by tea/coffee and then an interesting talk about the experiences of Ms.Jennie Coulston-Herrmann, who is a retired high ranking Police Officer. One of her many skills was employed in hostage negotiations. Humorous, entertaining and worth hearing..
