Today we had thirty-five walkers and Pam's dog.  It was Pam's first walk with us.  

Carmel was leading the main walk with David H back marking.  Suzi led the Elite group with Peter back marking for a time.

Carmel led off down Snake Hill

Suzi briefing the Elite walkers.

The Elite group set off past Sue Ryder's Cafe, walked round the front of the Hall and down Snake Hill.  Peter decided he wasn't up to it so he turned up past the new building and into the Pinetum and up to the viewing area where he rested for a while and then made his way back to the Barn.
