Going Out Group Ladies, Exmouth

UPDATE - Thanks for your responses. We will stick with the Bath House.

We have Just Drinks tomorrow, 7.30pm, at the Bath House on the seafront. Gillian has just made me aware that the Bath House has an Open Mic evening tomorrow. Thanks Gillian.

Is anyone going tomorrow? I see it's only me with 11 interested at the moment, but it's always a nice surprise to see who comes along. If anyone is going, what do you think? Do we want to listen in on the Open Mic or do you want to go to a different venue?

The Bath House has very kindly offered us use of their function room upstairs if we don't want be near the music, but we might be lost in there if there's only say, six, of us.

Let me know your thoughts please.

Thanks to Marianne for arranging our trip to Seaton Tramway yesterday, Saturday 5th September. It was, for the most part, a wonderful day, and it was certainly a memorable one with several stories to tell.

Sadly it ended at our halfway point in Colyton with Marianne being taken to RD&E in an ambulance. As you know, she is a strong and resilient lady and went home later that evening.

Marianne will be at the coffee morning at the Railway Club as normal on Monday and will tell you more about her experience then.

Here are a few of the ladies' photos, thanks ladies. x

Autumn is coming, it must be time for a muddy walk in Lee Ford Woods to see the golden leaves.This walk is just under two miles and will take about an hour.

Saturday 10th October, 10.15 from Castle Lane.

10.00 157 Sidmouth bus to the Salterton Road/Castle Lane stop just past the Tip or, if driving, park in Castle Lane. Walk along the cycle track to the Dalditch Lane path, then left up through Lee Ford Woods, past the Forest School. This is where there's usually a muddy patch for about 8 ft so you will need walking boots or wellies. Then we cross the Knowle Hill Road to the woods next to the Tip, then down the hill back to Castle Lane.

We then have the option of walking down the back path to Oakbarn for coffee for those who want to.

Jill, Angela and Lilly didn't let a bit of rain stop them. It was pleasant walk. Thanks for your company Jill.

Does anyone fancy getting their waterproof coat wet tomorrow morning?

Jill and Angela are doing the Littleham Church Path walk that was in the One Magazine last month. It's only 2.2 miles and doesn't actually get to Littleham Church.

You'll need to get yourself to the Links Road in Budleigh Salterton by 10.15am where we will start and finish the walk.

Please let Angela know if you'd like to go so we can look out for you there.

Hi ladies,

Who's going on Marianne's trip to Seaton Tramway on Saturday 5th September? I'm hoping to if it's not too hot for my dog. Lilly is excited to be going on the tram. I haven't told her yet that dogs aren't allow upstairs🤫.

Marianne will provide us with full details nearer the time but I think we're leaving Exmouth around 10am for the bus to Sidmouth where we change at The Triangle for the Seaton Bus.

The Coffee Morning at the Railway Club will go ahead as normal from 11am on bank holiday Monday.
