We want to see YOU there!!!”
Jump On A Train?
Playing it by ear you may just want to see what the weather’s like on the day, then decide. You could just jump on a train and have a day in Liverpool for instance. Or, you could change at Moorfields and carry on to Southport. Great day out and great value at just over a fiver return train fare.
Where Will We Be?
Weather permitting, we will take a look at the new Chester Zoo Nature Reserve on Sunday hopefully – more details HERE .
The other days? Early doors today.
Saturday afternoon for me is taken care of. Meeting up with a few old pals for a bit of a mini reunion and enjoying a shandy or two.
Monday? Playing it by ear, although a sneaky trip to Southport could be an option. Failing that, grab a bocadillo and watch the world go by at The Groves.
Whatever you’re up to, have a great bank holiday weekend.
