Rendezvous & Transport
We have a car share system for those who wish to use it.
Petrol costs are shared by all the occupants of the car (a good guide for drivers is 15p a mile).

Bookings for hostel breaks should be made through the leader by the date shown in the programme (usually two months in advance).
The leader will co-ordinate transport.
For weekend trips, we usually go away for 2 nights.
Some members have pub meals one or both evenings, while others self cater.
Individuals need to take packed lunch requirements for Saturday and Sunday, as well as self-catering food for breakfast and dinner.
The Group provides tea, coffee and sugar.
Hostels now include all bed linen in the overnight charge.
We plan walks for the days we are away.
