What a great day, plenty of laughs. We all met up as planned, and headed for the pier at Southport. After a warm at end of the pier we had a few split off to "mooch" around the gift shops. We planned to meet up at 1:45 to catch the train and the "moochers" planned to get the later one. That was great as the day was set up to allow individuals to do there own thing. Hopefully they found a few bargains.

Were on the train now heading back, we caught the best of the weather for sure. A great day and so nice to make new friends and to have a great group day out. It's a good start for wiki walks, there are more coming so keep an eye out for future walks. It's a great day out and the easiest way to make new friends.

Thanks to everyone who made it today.

P.s. Rude yu mums lovely x

I bravely gave up the joy of the invigorating walk along the three quarter mile each way pier to get some pics of the tram.

What does the HER in the monument pic refer to - Great Britain or Queen Victoria (sadly I didn't go closer to see which war it was)

Great pictures Derek Thanks for sharing.

If you had only seen Derek in the drivers seat on the way back lol
He was seriously in the drivers seat.
Ok ok not the one facing forward lol

Summer Events being bounced around are Hilbre Island and then the Iron Men a few weeks after, maybe in the summer holidays to make it a family affair. Keep up to date in the Wikiwalks chat thread smile

A few local walks to blow out the cobwebs.
