20 walkers made their way to Moreton where we walked down to the front and stopped to have a coffee, tea and bacon baps at the little cafe.  The wind was very strong on the front so we decided to have it behind us and walk to New Brighton instead Hoylake .

The views were spectacular along the way with waves high in places . We were treated to seeing wind surfers and swimmers braving the elements . The walk was 5 miles although with the help of the wind it felt shorter.

Some of us then went to the Sea Horse and had either Sunday roast or fish and chips.  Feedback showed good value money .

Next week it’s the  Rimrose Valley and will get 9.19 train from Maghull to Seaforth.

32 members of the Sunday Walkers group travelled by rail to St. Michaels station for a walk  to Liverpool’s Pier Head. Leaving the station we walked through Priory Woods and the old Garden Festival site and on to the waterfront. In warm sunshine and a light breeze we made the 3 miles along the promenade to the Pier Head around midday where we got a good view of Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth.

It was great to be out in great weather in good company.

The Friends of Sefton Park are providing a guided walk around the park for 35 of us next week followed by a meal in Lark Lane. Fingers crossed for a good day.

The Sunday Walkers group started with 3 and now has 50 members. Such a large group is just manageable but additional membership  is now closed..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What a difference a week makes. Last Sunday we were sleeveless. This week it was full weather proofs. However, the sun did try and 22 walkers covered 4 miles around the Giddygate Lane circuit from the station.  Impressive considering the rainy start.

 

 

 

 

 

On Sunday Sep 26th 26 folk jumped trains to meet at Moreton station. We covered the 4 miles to New Brighton along the ‘Wirral Way’ promenade and beach, where it was nice to see so many people out and about in glorious sunshine. In New Brighton we split up for lunch before returning to Maghull. Thanks to all for a great day out
