OUR REGULAR meetings are held on the third
Tuesday of the month at St Peter’s Rooms (side of St
Peter’s Church, Bishopsworth), starting at 7.30pm.
The  symbol means our own meetings, to which
anyone is very welcome, member or not. We are always
happy to include information about other meetings which
may interest our members.

Manor Woods Valley for about an hour. Meeting
point: entrance at bottom of Valley Road at
10.00am. Please wear sturdy shoes. Gloves and

(see page 10 of the Spring 2010 Newsletter). Meet at the Scout Hut on Bishport
Avenue (opposite the junction with Honey Garston
Road) at 10.15 for a prompt start at 10.30am. The
stroll over Dundry to Chew Magna should take
under two hours, followed by an informal pub
lunch in Chew Magna for those who want it. The

attractions and activities!
Sunday 20
June: The annual Malago Trek.
Start at the car park at ASDA, Bedminster, near
the store entrance, at 10.30am. This is a little
later than in previous years, because we will
make a fuller day of it, with our lunch stop in
Manor Woods Valley, to admire the meadow and the
new Meadow Interpretation board (see pages 2 and
3 of the Spring 2010 Newsletter). We’ll then continue, refreshed,
up Dundry Slopes. Plenty of buses back to the
start. Join in for all or part or the walk.
