Today 11 of us walked from Old Roan to Maghull and then 4 others members joined us for lunch at Scrummies.  We all agreed the scouse was great and the weather was as kind as it could be to us and we only had light rain when we were walking.    We have sorted out our walks for 2018 and will be going to Chester, Carr Mill Dam, New Brighton, Ormkirk (War Horse Walk) Southport, West Kirby, all using our bus passes.   If you want more information come to Group Support Desk on a Tuesday morning.

Sunday Strollers will be walking this Sunday 21st January.  We will get the 11 o clock train from Maghull to Old Roan and walk back along the canal to Maghull.  This is a flat 4.5 mile walk, the walking surface is good and we plan to have lunch at Scrummies at 1.15pm.  We need to book for lunch so need numbers by Friday.  If the weather is not suitable to walk we still intend to go for lunch and discuss what walks we are going to do this year.  Please ring 0151 531 0207 or 07900525222 and speak to John or Brenda.  Below are pictures when we did the recce last week.  As you can see we were lucky with the weather it was very cold but sunny so a very enjoyable walk.  Some times we do not appreciate what is on our door step!!!.

Parking at Maghull Baptist Church Could all members please be considerate when parking, and if using the MBC car park please stay within one parking space rather than leaving big gaps when parking. The Cricket Club car park has plenty of space which we can also use. Cars should not be parked on the roadside outside MBC – today one of our members needed to assist a lady with a pram who was having great difficulty navigating the pavement due to parked cars
