An unusually large number of us laboured off to Redhill. 11 decided to risk it with me viz Dave, Ed, Helene, Ian, John, Liz, Pete, Peter, Terry, Tim, and Tom. I had chosen the Plough at Rusper for lunch which is south-west from Redhill. Guess which way the wind was blowing?  We got there without too much difficulty other than inital stutter from me (ie going round in a loop!) The weather gradually got better and, other than the wind, it was lovely, sunny and not cold.

The pub had laid a nice table for us and it provided us with a pleasant lunch.

 

 

After lunch we made a small detour to a minor stately house - Lyne House, home of the Broadwood family, Broadwood as in pianos - but access from the south was barred by a locked gate (the road looked normal enough on the OS map, albeit though a farmyard).

 

Then on to Dorking to a tea room I like, by which time we were down to four, Ed. Ian, Terry and me.

 

 

 Terry, who is a well-known expert on toes, pointed ot that the Dorking cockerel had one too few toes!
