Nine of us leave Uxbridge heading north. Angela K, Phil H, Chris K, Steve A, Alan P, Lilo B, Jim S, Iain M and me. We head through Ickenham, Harefield and Northwood, stopping at Rickmansworth Golf Club for elevenses. Steve A leaves us, the rest of us continue through Holywell and Whippendell Wood. At Chandlers Cross I point out what would be the quick and easy way to our lunch stop at Chipperfield, and then proceed to lead them by a more challenging route via Hunton Bridge and Kings Langley. Lunch stop is at Blackwells. We are told that our food will take a half an hour, and it does, thereabouts. We return through Flaunden, Chenies and Chorleywood, where Angela bails out. Stopping at the Aquadrome in Ricky, there is a horrendous queue at the cafe so we abandon the tea stop and head home. Lilo and Chris go via Harefield while the rest of us head for the North Orbital. There is a brief delay when I take a wrong turning trying to exit the Aquadrome. Jim saves the day and we are soon back on course. At Uxbridge we go our separate ways. Another great day weatherwise, apart from some early rain on departure. Bernie
