A kind Rambler has informed me that the famous Blue Bird Café in Ferring is currently closed.

We spoke about a walking weekend to the Isle of Wight.

On Sunday a shorter walk looking to be back in Brighton by…

Please note the I will not be at The Level because I live in Shoreham. We will be departing from the west side of the old toll bridge at 10.30am. Hopefully and according to the forecast "its going to be sunny" We will try and avoid the low lying river bits but do assume that there may be a little mud. See you on Sunday. Ian
