Mere sands in the rain
A drizzly Thursday morning saw 8 intrepid ramblers take a stroll around the Mere Sands ‘nature reserve’ and local area. Starting from the car park we took the ‘white’ path out and across fields to the A59 and the canal bridge. The canal footpath took us past St. Marys and Fettlers wharf marinas. Running behind Rufford Old Hall we recrossed the canal and the A59 to Sandy Lane and across fields to Holmeswood and the return to the reserve car park via the ‘blue’ path.
It was warm and wet but not too bad as it was all on the level, great for folk with dodgy ankles and other limitations. We covered the very wet and often muddy 10km in just over 2.5 hours.
Well done to Anne for the pics and Peter for the lead.

Small is beautiful
This month we will be looking at how Philosophical ideas can help us deal with dilemmas like environmental issues and third world issues. In particular we will be examining the work of Schumacher the economist and philosopher through his 1970`s ground breaking book “Small is Beautiful”. This is a topic that should interest us all and is very current in most peoples thoughts about the present state of our planet. You would be very welcome to come along and enjoy our discussion, no philosophical background is needed just an interest in how we might shape our future. Just come and listen and join in if you wish or not.
We meet on Wednesday 20th September 2.30pm Kensington House
