A Group Wednesday 14 December

My original plan was to climb both Staple Lane and Crocknorth with a final hurrah over Box Hill. However, two weeks back to back might be asking too much so I’ve hastily change the direction and the amount of climbing. Instead we are heading to lunch at The Express Tavern at Kew Bridge, excellent range of real ale and good, reasonably priced food to look forward to. 18.5 miles to lunch and only another 10 miles to tea at Hampton Court, so if you’re enjoying the beer another pint might be on the cards? Possibility of a trip along the Thames towpath from Kew to Richmond but we can decide at lunch.
