Cold and wet Wednesday the 27 December

An unplanned event really as there was nothing in the events calendar.  But the day after boxing day was sure to inspire some to start shifting the Christmas pounds. It most likely would have been the case had the weather obliged, 3C an icy wind and snow didn't deter a few from getting to Squires at Long Ditton. I left home late having dressed feeling like Mr Blobby. The snow abated and turned into drizzle and had stopped as I reached 11's. David Ward, Brian Bent and David Vine and Sue were all seated drinking coffee and eating short bread, provided by Sue. David still recovering from the Black ice mishap and now also a chest infection came by car.

A long leisurely chat and festive banter, more short bread and the time was heading towards 12 o'clock. We said goodbyes and headed into the weather, slight drizzle gain now and a cold 10 miles home but nice to get some fresh air after 2 days of alcohol fumes.

A happy new year to all.
