Evening Walk - a Mooch around Melling Sandra and Tony Atkinson, Margaret and Roger Atkinson, Sue and Tony Maguire, Val Calder, Mick Fox, Hugh Taylor One of the good things about the club evening and daytime mid-week walks is being in unfamiliar areas. This walk was typical of that when Sandra and Tony Atkinson led a walk around Melling in the Lune Valley. A walk of contrasting weather moods, it started off with a lovely rainbow, rain in the first part of the walk, and ended with a pleasant evening with lovely light. A drink in the Lunesdale Arms in Tunstall rounded off an interesting evening. Thanks Sandra and Tony |
