Monday 14th September 2009, 1400, at Fanny's Farm. Walk, followed by tea. Walkers: mon the birthday girl(farty fallover), sister Viv, token bloke, mrs provincial, wendy no hills, clatchat. Added guests for tea - Angela B and Maggie R.
Weather o.k., but a bit blustery and grey clouds at times - autumn is here folks.
Did about an hour and a half of walking, looking at things, and at one point, half the group losing their way. Not to worry, back on course, on the golf course, and a few swigs of champers near the 16th tee, or was it tee hee hee? Token bloke complimented on his knack for attracting women by passing golfer. champers consumed, we returned and made ready for tea and cake.
The farm was up to its usual quirky standard, and we stroked the pot-bellied pigs, who are very friendly, and were also mindful of e-coli.
Up in the tree house, the staff had made it look very welcome, with tea-lights and bunting. the food was impressive and delicious. we had copious cups of tea, a little bubble or two, and the rambling rose presentation to our mon. plus other gifts., and lots of laughs and amusement at the musical cake slice. toasts were made to all of you, there, or absent.
after a look round the gardens, we made ready to leave. our usual exit blocked, by a recent road-accident, but no one hurt. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MON., AND A GOOD TIME HAD BY ALL.
N.B. Token bloke will be blogging the frog blog, as and when. i should be posting photos, but need help - again.
NEXT WALK; tues 22nd september, either fanny's farm again, cos of huge blackberries, or i am looking at west hoathly. enjoy your weeks ladies and gentleman.
