B Group Oct 10th

9 of us set out from Hersham towards Weybridge and there we joined the Thames towpath and went the quite short distance to the Weir, a rather nice pub near Molesley lock; where, being rather an intellectual group, we ate in the library. The 9 were Gill, John, Les, Liz, Norman, Robin, Stephanie, Terry and yours truly. There was no gammon on the menu but otherwise the food was pretty good with very pleasant service. One of the discussion points over lunch was how grateful we all were to those who had taken on the work of running the club.
We then carried on downstream, over Hampton Court Bridge where there were about a thousand school parties. (Liz was nearly in tears because none of us managed to run over a child!). Back across Kingston bridge where we had a modicum of democracy about the route. Richmond Park was the winner so that's where we went. I saw a 14-pointer stag. John then invited us to tea so there was a bit of parting of the ways, some of us took up his offer and had tea and lovely apple cake straight from the oven with vanilla topping.
Regards Bernard
