15th June at  the Devils Dyke Picnic.

Just to say we the club members had a super "Picnic"  at the Dyke.
The weather was very accommodating with a wonderful sunset as the pictures show.
There was an accident on the approach to the Dyke blocking it, so we went in the Pub and had a coffee whilst the up-side-down car was removed. no one was serious hurt, so all's well that ends. well
