After a close encounter with a deer on the descent of Tanswell Lane and
grovelling the last few miles to Wisborough Green on a softening rear tyre,the
West Surrey splinter group decided that eighty miles would do
nicely,thankyou,and opted for the other way home.Near Loxwood we passed back
into Surrey on a satisfyingly quiet road until Alfold Crossways,gritted our
teeth for a stretch of A281,then Wildwood Lane for Cranleigh,Shamley
Green.Wonersh and Shalford to Guildford by four o''clock ,looking for tea.The
Riverside Cafe had just closed,so we had to make do with Cafe Society outside
Wetherspoons(where else!) basking in the sunshine and admiration of the young
ladies from the Music Academy next door. With a fleeting thought of the main
group and whether they had got to Denbies before closing time we set off
through Burpham and Send to arrive home at 6:15. Quite an interesting day,which
would have been even better if the young man who opted to go to the coast had
followed my advice to go via Fittleworth.
