Uffington Walk Wed 7th Oct 9:30 THMH
HI Everyone,
Having followed closely the recent updates on government guidelines for Covid 19 we feel it is fine to continue with the village walks, dividing ourselves into groups of six as before. Meeting in the car park of THMH @ 9:30, please remember to distance as we gather.
October's Walk will take us out to Fox Cover via Lower Common then uphill to Kingston Lisle. After a short break at the playground in KL returning via the road (for a short distance) before turning on to the footpath in Fawler across the fields to Uffington. Five miles in all. Weather is looking reasonably good for the morning. Hope to see lots of you there.
