2018 August Ramble



Ramble 345

Wednesday 8.8.2018

Those attending:- Froggy (as Routemaster!), Lafayette, Sandyballs, The Bish, Curly and Paco.



The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men



The general idea was to travel from Lewes Station to The Plough Inn at Upper Dicker
via The Berwick Inn at Berwick Station.
At the Berwick Inn refreshments were taken and they proved to be somewhat expensive. (£4.60 for a pint of cider!!)

Nevertheless, Froggy herded up the NERDS and with map and instructions at hand everyone set out with the routmaster in charge.

After traipsing around the reservoir we searched for The Weald Way and got lost among the fields and fairy paths.
Escaping from the fairies
everyone headed for a church spire in the distance hoping it was near any village which would hopefully have a pub. We arrived more by luck than any judgement at Arlington churchyard not too far from The Yew Tree pub.


There we were assured of a welcome, great food and drinks.

The return home via The Berwick Inn proved splintered as most of the NERDS walked directly to the Inn but Froggy and Curly rambled around seemingly a little lost among the fairies until they eventually arrived at The Berwick Inn a half hour after everyone else.

After that the train journey to Lewes and all points southerly proved uneventful.
