Webheath Wanderers

My folks are part of a walking group called the Webheath Wanderers. They roam back and forth across town once a week as part of a council-led get fit scheme. The walk would typically end at the village hall where they were served tea or coffee. Due to a council budget cut; they started to ask for weekly subs to keep the group going which would cover public liability insurance. A lot of the group weren’t keen with this so they decided to form their own group and cut out the middle man.  The walk now finishes at the local pub, and if it’s the first of the month they go for a meal as well; which is the day my Dad would join them.  There’s been some strange policies from this pub in recent months; from not having enough mugs to turning down a whole host of diners because of a bingo group; even though there’s a bar as a separate room. They now go to a different pub for their meal.
