Cancellation of February's Ramble 2026

Hi all.

I guess all or most of you will by now have heard of Harry (and Matt's) woes. As we get older even the slightest accident or surgery can cause more longer-lasting grief than when we were younger.

Without the 2 remaining founder members, it just wouldn't be right to continue with Wednesday’s planned outing to Glynde. Let us hope that normal service can resume sometime soon.

Best wishes to you all and see you whenever?

February 2026 Sandyballs' fall!

Hi All,

Bit of a disaster. I had a fall at home and have damaged my tibia. Needs an op.Am currently in A&E Brighton waiting transferred to the ward

Can you email the NERDS and tell them the news. Obviously I cannot make the ramble. Might be an idea to postpone? Please let me know what you think.

Also include the Bish.

Will keep you posted. No booze involved in the accident!

Harry

2026 February Ramble arrangements

Hi all,

We are due to meet next Wednesday 25th for our two pub crawl/ mini non - ramble in Glynde, First visiting The Trevor Arms (which opens at 12 noon) and then crossing the railway tracks to The Steamworks for lunch.

So the Seaford contingent should take the 11.24 service to Lewes which arrives at 11.41. There we repair to The Runaway Cafe on Platform 2 for a half-hour or so for a coffee or a little drop of whatever you fancy. Onward train to Glynde departs at 12.14.

I shall probably book a table at The Steamworks for (perhaps optimistically) 5 persons.

Hope to see y'all on the day. No Admiral this time. He and Jan plan to be sunning themselves in Barbados!

Dave, see you in the cafe.
Regards
Harry

February 2026 initial arrangements

So, February 2026 has arrived and we are looking forward to Valentine’s Day and Shrove Tuesday (Pancake Day) and Chinese New Year!

Sandyballs has sent out the following message:-

Last month's idea to go to Gynde 
didn't really work. Shall we have another go this month? I am looking at Wednesday 25th. Let me know if that is a problem for anyone.
Cheers
Harry
