If you want to join us
only at lunchtime and then, at the end, be ferried
back to the lunch stop
please phone the walk's organiser in advance, both to find out roughly
when
we will arrive at the lunch stop and also so that we know that we need
to look out for
you when we get there! Allowing
for stops and a pub or picnic lunch (your choice), walks are intended
to finish by 4 p.m. If you need a lift to the walk's start,
usually from St Nicholas car park in Guildford, telephone the
organiser, again at least by the day before the walk. Remember
that you can walk with us up to three times before deciding whether or
not to join.
