New midweek walks for 2014

Due to the popularity of the Sunday walks, we have decided to introduce a monthly mid week walk.

All walks will be on a Wednesday, normally the third Wednesday of the month.

Dates for the new Wednesday walks are shown in the Walk dates for 2014 post.

As with the Sunday walks, all are welcome. Bring your neighbours, friends and dogs.
