Easy Riders. December 3rd

We left Cobham day centre after enjoying a mince pie and coffee, from John's b/day celebrations.  Thanks, John.
A small group this week, due to Fuzz having had his eye op last week and the weather getting colder.  Les, Margaret, Norman, Ian, Maureen and myself made our way to the old A3, down Westend Road, going towards Esher.  Left at the green and down to Thames Ditton, Molesey and Hampton Court.  Here we said goodbye to Maureen and picked up Liz, who had an early morning errand and continued to lunch.  We went over Hampton Crt bridge towards Teddington, down the high street and took a left turn into Twickenham Road.  Along by the river to our lunch stop at The Barmy Arms.  We were welcomed by a real fire and nice lunch.  One of the locals suggested we see the nearby York Gardens before our journey home.  So we left our bikes at the pub and walked a couple of minutes to the gardens.  There were about six or seven Italien marble statues of naked ladies and a picturesque fountain.  I remember seeing this before in winter when the statues had ice on them.  We then had a walk round and continued homeward.
