03 November   In Nank’s footsteps Dave Bamford, John Wild, and Paul Maxim

Since 2014, Dave Bamford, John Wild, and Paul Maxim have endeavoured to keep the legacy of John Nankervis’ trips alive by going back to the mountains with other regulars from Nank’s yesteryears. They will tease out some of these outings and what Nank meant to each of them. Many attendees will have their own memories which they may also like to briefly recall. A fun talk down memory lane.

24 November   Walking the Stevenson Trail in south-central France

The GR70 (Chemin de Stevenson), traces the 1878 journey of Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson and his donkey, Modestine, chronicled in his book Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes. Rachel Fry and Peter Morten followed the 240km route without a donkey, but enjoyed meeting other walkers and their donkeys.
