I have arranged to visit the Palm House in Sefton Park where we will have a guided tour and then tea/coffee and cake afterwards (£13 per member)

We will then either drive or walk to 25 Aigburth Drive (this is a Kadampa Temple like the one in Ulverston that we visited)  but not as ornate, as  this one  is housed  in a large house (£6 per member)

There will be a talk on the Buddhist Discipline that Kadampa follow, followed by a Meditation lasting approx. 1 hour

Members can either make their own way to the Palm House or take a return “taxi service” from Maghull Square (£10 per member)

Please see George or Jeff at AFF desk , book place and pay

Bowland in September

Undeterred by Yellow Weather Warnings, 6 Ramblers set off from the lovely village of Bowland by Bowland for a 10 mile circular walk. The weather was fine and dry when we set off but we were realistic that this might not last!

After the first leg to the village of Sawley, we had a quick water stop and a photo op alongside the River Ribble. A couple of miles further on we stopped for lunch in a very odd location which comprised a Stone Circle and Arthurian sword in the stone!<

A heavy downpour caught us out, so shelter under some trees proved a good idea except for the multitude of very liquid cow pats! Moving on we crossed a small plateau before dropping down to the river along a steep and partially stepped path.

The final stretch took us through the village Bolton in Bowland and back to Bowland car park for a quick change before the short drive to Sawley and a welcome drink in the Spread Eagle pub.
