Ramblers Reports for June & July
On 19th June 13 people walked from Pevensey Castle to the Pevensey Golf Club where we stopped for coffee before making our way back to our cars. A lovely day after the early rain. From here we drove to The Star at Normans Bay, where we met 7 others for our anniversary lunch, an unbelievable 26 years since the group began.
Our July walk was at the ever-popular Barcombe Mills. A little later setting off than planned as one of our number (I shall mention no names!) took a wrong turn and those of us following had to do a u-turn. However, by chance, at the spot we turned round I spotted an unusual pair of graves by the roadside, with a sign that said two soldiers, possibly killed in a duel, circa 1800. When we finally all gathered there was a short, sharp shower as the group of 21, and 4 very well behaved dogs, set off but this gradually cleared and we enjoyed a sunny coffee stop at the Anchor Inn before walking back along the river to take our picnic lunch. Here we marvelled at the vast number of butterflies, mostly red admiral, enjoying the thistles.
