Today we had forty-nine twalkers who were rewarded with a lovely walk on a dry day after four sunny days

Carmel led the main walk with James Mc back marking.  Susan S led the Elite group with Colin C back marking.

Carmel introduced herself and outlined her plans.  

She led us off into the Pinetum and down Cardiac Hill, over the Wooden Bridge
