Circular Walks: all Walks are circular, unless otherwise stated, and start from the place indicated in the programme.
Public Transport: all public transport times and details should be checked before you start your journey (they may be changed since the programme was prepared).
Dogs: sorry no dogs on rambles (except guide dogs).
Newcomers: newcomers - please introduce yourself to the Walk Leader (that's the one with the worried look).
Clothes: it is recommended you wear walking boots or Wellingtons and bring wet gear.
Summer: do not forget sun cream, drinking water and sun protection for head and neck.
Food: it is recommended you bring a packed lunch and drink. There will normally be breaks for: morning drinks, midday lunch, and one in the afternoon too. Do not rely on getting lunch time pub food.

Leaders Lead: please do not to walk in front of the leader.
Direction Change: when changing direction on a walk will members please ensure that the person behind is aware of the route being taken.
Places of Interest: if you want to visit a place of interest, then ask the leader to stop for a few minutes. Unless on a tight schedule most will oblige.
Leaving Walk: advise the Leader (or back marker) if you wish to leave the party at any point.
Lost: if you get detached from the party the best policy is to stay put because the leader should eventually notice you are mising and return to you.
Lunchtime Stop: the standard stop will be 45 minutes although leaders have the discretion to vary this. A high volume of people eating pub food may be the cause of longer lunch requests. A leader may state in the programme the maximum time allowed. Before ordering food ensure it will arrive and be eaten by the re-start time. Please do not eat your brought food on pub premises unless permitted.
After Lunch re-start: it is the walker's responsibilty to be on time to re-start.
