MAP OF VENUE

As many of you will know Marshall and Kath always put on an excellent post-race buffet. Thus if possible, let Dave know by Thurday, October 5th if you are attending and in what capacity, which will help enormously in gauging how many butties, pies and cakes to prepare. Mouth-watering, Thanks for your cooperation.

Thinking of Dave, ‘a man for all seasons’ in Peter Fawkes’ words, he made a rare appearance on the road race walking in the recent Police and Civil Services championships. Indeed Dave’s emergence on to the race walking came through his deep involvement in the Civil Services Athletic Club. For a fuller story see

Thanks to our great friend Glyn Jones for the result. Four participants from the Lancashire Police suggests we may be missing out on a possible source of membership!!
