January Walk and Lunch - Thursday 8th January

Happy New Year and I hope you all had a good Christmas.  As I told you all several weeks ago this month's walk is taking place on the second Thursday instead of the first, which is New Year's Day.  It will be led by Mike and I, and we have provisionally booked for 12 of us to have lunch afterwards at the Red Lion in High Lane.  This number is flexible to a certain extent.  We have had to book for 12.30 as they have a big group already booked in later.

However, the pub need to know definite numbers by this Friday, 2nd January.  And they will also need us to pre-order our menu choices by Tuesday 6th.  This should show just the normal menu. Please note that the festive menu will have finished by then.

So, please inform me by midday this Friday, 2nd January, if you would like to join us for lunch.  And send me your menu choices by midday on Tuesday 6th January.

The walk is from Lyme Park main car park.  Meet near the food kiosk at 10.00am.  We go via Cage Hill to the gate out onto Red Lane and then follow the path along the north side of the reservoirs and then over fields until we cross over Bollinshurst Bridge and go back into the park near the deer sanctuary.  Depending on time and inclination we can detour via Lantern Wood or return to our cars directly along the roadway.

Lyme charges per head on entry by car, not per car, if you are not a National Trust member, so don't forget to bring your membership cards.  You can, however, walk in free of charge.

This is quite a tight time frame so please don't forget to email me if you're coming and want lunch.  And then don't forget the menu choices!
