14 very hardy members of the Rambling group took an 8 mile meander on the Wirral yesterday.

Sunday walkers – 02/01/22
15 of us went on a mystery walk this morning. Due to conditions the route had to be changed more than once. We ended up doing 4 miles from the station, along canal to Bells Lane and back. We were very lucky with the weather as it rained heavily about 30 minutes after we finished. We agreed we would all take a lateral flow test before walks in the future for the time being.
Great to be back – happy New Year to all who were unable to join us
WECOMING 2022, I THINK ?
This wonderful stained glass piece, Virgin and Child, is by British stained glass artist Margaret Traherne. 1919 – 2006
Influenced by the French expressionism, it makes for a dramatic composition.
We were fortunate to visit Ely Cathedral last year and loved the wonderful diverse stained glass museum. Not all religious works as seen below.
The Sower by William Morris.
We hope to do a visit to Ely later this year if allowed and safe of course.It is well worth a visit.. Take care and have a safe 2022
