Thursday 2nd February. Please meet at Windmill Pub, Parbold for a 10:30 start.
2 walks available, 4-5 miles or 8-9 miles. Both include rough terrain and stiles so good walking footwear is essential. Those taking the short walk can have lunch at the pub after the walk. Unfortunately the kitchen closes at 2pm so those taking the longer walk will need to bring a packed lunch.
Contact Marg Kendall for more info.
Many thanks to Ian for leading our first day out of 2017 and for his write up of the day. As Ian mentioned February will mean a year since the group first started and I don’t know where the days have gone, time flies when you’re having fun! To celebrate we will be meeting in the Frank Hornby on Friday 24th February at 1pm. John O’Neill is kindly organising a quiz and I hope as many of you can join us.
Cheers to you all and I hope 2017 has us visiting new hostelries, enjoying good company and excellent beers!

at Maghull Parish Hall. This group has only just started, so are looking for new members to join. They have a plot of land at Hudson School if you would like to have a go at growing your own vegetables or flowers, or you can just come along and share ideas.
If you want further information come to the group support table on a Tuesday morning or send a reply to this post.
Marj has asked me to post the “Thank You ” below.

I would like to express thanks to my friends and their partners of Badminton 1 Group for the most enjoyable evening bestowed upon me, on my relinquishing of the above group.
After ten years I decided it was time to pass over the reins, but not to hang up my racquet. You are not getting rid of me that easily. I have enjoyed running the group which has resulted in me making some very dear friends and having a great social life (yes even at my age), not forgetting the Badminton of course.
So again many thanks for my meal, my bouquet and gift vouchers.
You have all been so very kind and a great group to work with, see you Wednesday am.
Marj Grundy.
