During our recent trip to UK, Myriam took the opportunity to arrange a visit to Maurice and Esme in Angmering.
Terry M., Hedley and Joy were all in UK at the time and were able to attend. Simone, who walked with the group some years ago, lives not too far from Maurice, and also joined us for lunch at a very nice pub on the banks of the River Arun.
Here are a few pictures taken on the day.
It was a very pleasant lunch, and much reminiscence ensued. At the end Esme and Maurice very kindly and firmly insisted on footing the bill, and would brook no dissent. Thank you very much and we wish them both all the best. They would always be pleased to see old friends from the Algarve.
Maurice and Esme asked us to send their love and best wishes to all their old friends and fellow walkers here in the Algarve and abroad. Maurice enjoys reading the blog and is immensely proud of the way that the group he founded is still flourishing, and especially that his Algarve Way has been successfully established and refined and followed by so many walkers.
Old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read. Bacon, Francis
