Ave atque vale - Hail and Farewell

Sadly, after five years, and much deliberation, Hastings Strollers is coming to an end.

If someone wants to take it over, please get in touch!

Details of our last, and farewell walk, will be posted on Tuesday.

The blog will remain online for at least a year, to show some of what is available in our lovely part of the country.

Thanks to all those who over the years who have spent time with us (especially Misayo for bravely climbing over and under during the visit to the Secret Pool, and to Jill, who did it too, and also planned and led some of the walks, including the last.).)

Sedlescombe again–penultimate outing

We still didn’t manage the proposed walk – due to an accident (and we do hope no one was seriously injured) the bus was over half an hour late, so there just wasn’t time.  None the less we had had a pleasant walk through the village, over fields and lunched in the churchyard.

Tuesday October 28th Walk

Hoping to do the Seddlescomb walk that was supposed to happen last month, but it may be a bit damp underfoot.

So for now, follow instructions from

Tuesday, 30th September–Seddlescombe

but be prepared for a last minute change!

Tuesday’s Walk cancelled

I am really sorry to cancel yet another walk in this blighted year, but due to illness and people being away, there is no one to lead this walk.

If anyone wishes to take themselves, the village store in Seddlescomb sells a booklet of walks in which this one is described.  (There’s also an interesting antiques shop.)

Tuesday, 30th September–Seddlescombe

As usual this year, the walk is weather-dependant, but unless it is absolutely pouring some of us may well go as far as the village and then reassess the situation.

Your choice.

Don’t forget your lunch (there is a shelter where we can eat if necessary)

But if things go according to plan, we will be going on a 4 and a bit mile round walk, fields and country roads.

Bus No. 349, leaving the station approximately 10.30

Sorry Folks, walk's off!

Worst year we've had for walks, weather-wise, but it will be very slippy underfoot, even if it fines up, and I already have a bath-tub full of dripping clothes.

Next month Seddlescomb and Powder Mill Resevoir - with any luck.
