Friday “Drinkies”
Over twenty enjoyed Friday night Drinkies at the Sprig and Fern, Tawa. We will be back at Simmer for Friday Night Drinkies come the first Friday in May.
Alison’s Corner
No birthdays or other special events to note this week. Again we trust that anyone who had a special day that we do not know about did indeed have an enjoyable day.
Newsletter/Website
If there is anyone who would like to be involved from time to time as a back up for Peter Nalder, then we would love to hear from you. Peter does a great job and is happy to continue. However he does, like others, go on holiday now and then and although he has always managed to get the newsletter out when away it would be great to be able to let him have his holidays in peace without having to collate the newsletter and put in on the web. If you are interested in adding a new skill to your CV contact Peter. Previous experience in web editing is not necessary.
The Walks
There were no weather interruptions to the planned walks this week. 12 PP’s, 31 SS’s and 17 FF’s made their way around Johnsonville. On Thursday 6 walkers walked somewhere in Tawa and on Friday 13 walkers explored some different ways to get to the top of Mt Kaukau and down again.
Cancellations
To better align with my lifestyle cancellation emails if required will go out a bit later than before but no later than 8:00am. To avoid disappointing those that are happy to walk in marginal conditions from now on the cancellation will be either; a) the walk is cancelled and have a coffee at Simmer; or b) Conditions are marginal and those that still are considering to walk meet at 9:00am to either head off for the walk or if they change their mind, head to Simmer for coffee.
Enjoy your walks.
