Saturday 25th February - Night Walk                                    1700 for a prompt departure at 1715 at The Kings Head in Shadoxhurst. We will be walking 7 miles on mainly flat ground, by ways and wide paths. You will need to contact me to let me know that you are coming, please do not just turn up as I want to check that you have the correct gear for night walking. You will need a Hi Vis Vest and a torch with good batteries. If you do not have these items I should be able to help you although you will need to provide your own batteries please. We are booked to eat at 8pm and you are welcome to join even if you do not wish to walk just please let me know so I can book numbers. This is good big food, and Shadoxhurst is only about a mile or so out of Ashford so if you wish to drink I would suggest you share transport there and get a taxi back, it shouldn't break the bank. Walkers, we will order food before we leave and as always could we all please order drinks from the bar.                               Liz
