 South West Winter Meet 2008

We plan to have another winter get-together on Saturday 23th February 200
at John and Josephine's house at 7 Cross Park Road, Wembury, South Devon.

Wembury is a coastal village a few miles south east from Plymouth.
Call us on 01752863730 if you need help finding it or email j_perry*@*btinternet.com for a map.
(Please remove the asterisks from the email address to make it work)


We would aim to start our meeting about 18:00, arrive a bit earlier if you would like some tea.
We would also invite you to join us for a short walk along the coastal path in the afternoon, starting from our house at 1430.
I have made the times just a little earlier than last year since I remember some people had to travel quite a distance
and it was getting late when we finally left the pub after our meeting.

John Perry.
