Talking to a couple of people yesterday, it was suggested that we have a 10.30 - 11.00 start. What does everyone think?

Did you want me to edit the start time to 11am ?
I just shamelessly copied someone elses work, hence the 10am start

Mince pies - check
Mulled wine (red and white) - check
Silly hat - check
Elf and his mate safety - check

Looks like we are good to go!
Don't forget this is a Hound Plus Walk, so you can bring your non-grey mutt(s) too! Bring a friend or relative to show how cool (or maybe cold) greymutts are!
We are starting a bit later at 11am and parking is £2.00.
If you want to dress up your mutt we won't laugh, honest... and there may be a prize! If you want to dress yourself up; we will laugh and there won't be a prize!

Well 18 hounds and their owners started off on the walk, with 23 finishing!
We had a couple on their first GW walk which was fantastic!
Although it threatened rain and was very wet underfoot, we had a very enjoyable walk!
Some photo's:
Very wet!
Lovely lurcher!
All dressed up!
Mulled wine and mince pies - luvly jubbly!
