Messing About On The River!

What better way to escape the rat race and have a leisurely break on a narrowboat. We've booked 2 barges (1 sleeps 12 but we're only filling it with 10, and the other sleeps 8 and only being filled with 6 persons so not to make things feel too cramped with people you may not know too well).

We plan a week on the canals taking in the glorious English countryside through Cheshire. There will be plenty of stops on the way and Bunbury just has so much to offer.

Cost per person for the week is £145 although you will need to pay for your transport to Bunbury Boatyard and home (car sharing may be possible) as well as food and drink.

This kind of English holiday is very enjoyable and once you have been once you will be itching to go again.

16 members (from Thatcham, Reading and Andover) are already booked in and there are just 3 spaces left on the 10 (12) sleeper narrowboat. Grab yours now!!!

If you are interested in going please contact Leo for more details or your Clubs Events/Activities Officer or Chair.

Fancy taking part in the Southern Area Hedge Hop?
Each SA Club is encouraged to put a team together to take part in this barmy event. Single participants from different Clubs can join up to make a team too.

The Hedge Hop is a team event (3 - 4 people per team and each Club can have more than one team) which involves a 4 mile timed walk/jog along country roads in the dark. It starts at 6.30pm and along the route there are clues to answer. If that sounds easy enough, there will be spotters in cars patrolling the route. If they spot any of the team members you get a time penalty. (Hence why it's called a hedgehop!) Once you are back at the pub there will be a buffet (provided by Southern Area).

Where? The Coronation Arms, St Mary, Bourne nr Andover SP11 6AR
How much? £1 per person

Please do support this - it's a lot of fun!
