Plods 2008

14th May
After a bit of a faff due to parking in 2 different locations we header off almost following the planned route towards Sharpthorne then away accross the field to follow the Bluebell railway to Horsted Keynes. After crossing the railway we found a Geocache and proved they do exist.
Past Ardingly and on to the woods between Wakehurst and Philpots but failed to spot the ‘Large upon little’ stone feature.

30th April
All met by the Church in Slaugham on a dismal evening with promise rain. Headed South to Warniglid and across the A23 . Completed the Carter collection when Roys brother joined us on the walk towards Staplefield. Prevented a delay by aborting a breakway to the Pub and continued to the lakes below Nymans Gardens then back across the A23 at Handcross and a return to Slaugham and a welcome refeshment at the pub.

9th April
Started in the Carpark at Forest Row, most people turned up on time and we welcomed some new recruits including Roy, Andy & Pete. Headed out past the Golf Corse then then over the A22 into the wilds of Ashdown Forest. Roy-in-blue went his own way but we all emerged on the other side to cross priory lane and dropped down to the Pale. We were luckier than deer in the past and were able to escape from the forest and soon had a view of Weir Wood reservoir. On the way down Steve had a look for a Geocache but in plodding tradition it was ellusive. Passing Brambletye ruins the pace was stepped up as the light was dimming and the Chequers beckoning.
