Errwood Reservoir & The Beehive Inn at Combs

A good turnout on yet another sunny (and windy) day saw the LOTSW group (Andrew, David, Neil, Tony & Tony) meet up for coffee/biscuits at Tony W's and then a short drive to Errwood Reservoir. The walk was 7 mile route with a couple of hills (luckily the wind was behind us on the way up the hills). Some good views and the rain stayed off and we arrived in good time at the Beehive Inn for a pint of Copper Dragon and good food (and yes, fish and chips was on the menu).

The walk after lunch (with a hill straight away) was a bit slower but we were rewarded with good views again.

The end of the walk was along the side of Fernilee Reservoir. We were back at the cars by about three and then enjoyed a cup of tea at Tony W's before saying goodbye.

The next LOTSW is planned for September 2011 (probably in Derbyshire again) and the the highlight of the year, Andrew's 60th bash, is planned for December.
