Paul's 6¼ mile, multi-recced walk took 27 of us from the Village Hall at Hose and down to the Grantham Canal. We turned off at Harby Mill Bridge to walk up to Harby and to the church for a coffee stop. Then it was back to the canal, leaving at Stathern Bridge near Dove Cottage to take Canal Lane and across Stathern Lane to some unavoidable and very muddy tracks back to Hose.
There then followed the VBR AGM, well attended mainly because of the tea and cakes, courtesy of the Committee (and their wives!).
