The rain it raineth…
The recently re-started LALG trailwalkers group have managed 3 walks in utterly glorious weather, over the past few months. It had to change I suppose...

An email has been circulated to members of the group but others who are interested should get in touch with the Group Contact as soon as possible.
Our usual monthly social evening is Thursday 21 October at 8pm in The Garden City Brewery, The Wynd.
