Anyone fancy a spuddle on Saturday?
I was going to head over to the lakes at Chew Valley...?
Probably a late morning/afternoon thing for a couple of hours...can meet up wherever/whenever's convenient for others

Easiest way to find the tea shop is to follow the A368 into Bishop Sutton then take the 1st left (Bonhill road) after the Post Office shop and the chapely/churchy thing on your left. it's signposted on that junction"Chew Valley Lake".Follow that one out for about a mile and you'll you'll go around a slow 90 degree right hander. Turn left about 20yds after that into Walley Lane and its out there on the left hand side. They use to charge to get into the site but Jez reckoned they waved him on through on his bike so you might be lucky.
