Sunday 18th August
A group of us ventured onto the footpaths of Herefordshire to find the Harewood Inn, this involved trekking through fields of Maize and Sugar beet. We made it to the pub with only a slight deviation, and had a drink to celebrate Sid’s 76th birthday. On the return some scrumping was done as the path also passed through an orchard.
Helen joined us on the Rally field in her motorhome.
In the evening we had a BBQ and cake in honour of Sid’s Birthday.
