| Meeting | We usually meet on the first Thursday of each month, with a different person leading each time.
March Walk and Lunch - Thursday 5th March Mike and I have found a walk that is (almost) entirely on tarmac or well made gravel and vehicle worthy tracks or roads and (almost) entirely mud free. It goes alongside the Southside perimeter of the airport and then turns onto country lanes and through Styal Village and Quarry Bank Mill. It is mostly flat with no stiles. Apart from Altrincham Road which we have to use at the beginning and end of the walk, the road walking is along quiet country lanes. Altrincham Road has a broad tarmac footpath running alongside it and, although it is a busy road and we will have to cross it twice, visibility is good in both directions and there are plenty of gaps in the traffic. Because we will be walking into Quarry Bank Mill on public footpaths there is NO requirement to pay or show an NT membership card. And we can use the toilets and cafe facilities there if we want to. We start and finish at the Honey Bee SK9 4LT, where we have permission to park while we walk. This seemed popular with everyone at the last walk so I hope you won't mind going there again. I have included a link to their menu below. I have booked a table for 12.30. The walk took Mike and I an hour and a half without a stop so we should have plenty of time. Please let me know as soon as possible if you are going to join us for lunch at the Honey Bee and what your menu choices are. And definitely by next Friday 27th February.
