Well that was a bit wet
wasn't it! Whilst putting out controls I
felt like I was in some of the worst weather I had ever encountered – driving torrential
rain, lightning and thunder roaring every 30 seconds, gradually developing into
a horrendous hailstorm. Thankfully the
weather did slightly improve over the
evening, although it was still raining for much of the time.
Anyway, I'm glad that a few
brave souls came along and tried out the courses, even if the turnout was
understandably lowered by the weather.
Well done to everyone who braved the elements and got round an excellent
map memory course, which made the best use of a small but interesting
area. Thanks to new SLOW member Anne Straube for organising and planning the event.
Next Tuesday’s event is
being organised by CROC, at Happy Valley near Coulsdon – full
details here.
