Disabled Toilets Update
In addition to the toilet floors, we have laid tiles on the connecting corridor floor. To avoid bulges and bubbles its essential (so I am told) that a heavy roller is used to make sure all is flat. The next step will be to set up the stumps, fit the bails and we have indoor cricket!
Joking apart these rollers are not something to carry when running for the bus, each of them 3 weighs in at a heafty 50 Kg, that's 110 lbs in old money.
At last some of the china wear is being offered up. I have refrained for making rude comments at this point but I am sure our newsletter editor will have a field day when the next edition comes out

An extra Public Running date will be on Sunday 30th September in celebration of the 3rd Green Dreams day. From 13:00 until 16:000
Last Sunday, Charity day on 9th September
This was a fantastic day all round, the weather was just as requested. Thank you to all who came along. In addition the trains running from 11 am through to 5 pm the canteen was kept very busy plus the tombola was a success along with the other attractions.
Thanks to Barclays bank then who swelled the money raised by £750 we will be able to donate £1900 to Guild Care.
Our running season is drawing to a close but will will be there on Sunday 23rd September at our usual times of 2 to 5 pm
Our next outing is on Sunday September 23rd and don't forget there's an extra one the following week.
The latest Autumn 2018 edition of our newletter is available for download from the link on the Members Page.
We are in the North West corner of Field |Place, beyond the Tennis Courts. I suggest that you use the first Car Park entrance on the Right after enetering Field Place having gone past the indoor bowling club on your left. Go through to the second part of the car park and from there there's a fairly direct footpath by the bowling greens on your left up to the footbridge access to the club house as ground level access to the track and clubhouse is closed off on public running days. However, there is a buggy park by our entrance and disabled acccess is provided should it be needed.
