We left Broadstairs to travel first to Ramsgate and then onwards? to Sandwich,?we were joined by 5 other intrepid travellers on this leg Mark and Katy Styles, David and Helen Setters and Douglas Graham.?? In Sandwich we enjoyed a picnic with 12 others?in the potting shed.? Thank fully it was available as the weather was foul and sadly we did not get to appreciate the full beauty of the Salutation Gardens.

Our evening was spent at a Wine and Wisdom Quiz in Sandwich which was organised by Bridget Redworth and her team of volunteers.? They provided a magnificent Ploughman’s Supper which alone was worth the entrance fee.? The evening was great success and raised over ?850 for MND in East Kent.? Huge thanks and congratulations to Bridget and her team.

Special thanks to Douglas Graham, David and Helen Setters, Rae Martin Smith and Alana Maytum who all made long journeys to be with us.

Apologies for lack of photos we have loads but our technology wont allow us to post them. Will post as soon as we have sorted out how to do it on a smart phone.? We have resolved this problem, it seems to have been an inadequate connection to the internet and now we are home we are able to post .
