Report:
Well I`m blowed, at 620 there was a strong possibility with so many away it would be me and Frank and I wasn`t too sure about Frank;5 minutes later we had our best turnout with 9 hardy souls.Welcome Elliot,who upped the gene pool somewhat,hope to see you again next week.Andy Pixton popped up from 3* with a promise to reorganise his running day to come with us more often next year,Richard was back from Wales and it was great to see Allen and Jerry back for a second helping.

Full credit and many thanks to Mr Schroer who led from start to finish,keeping a perfect tempo and the group together the whole way,which considering the lumpy terrain took some doing but must make him a serious contender for Lead-out Man 2016 at the Club Awards this year!

Pub turnout was good(terrible Bouillabaise though) and I`m pretty sure we can put this one down as a good one,thanks everyone for coming and making my life easy.
