28th December - Leonardslee Run & Piiizzaaaa!

Hello all,

If you're reading this I guess you survived the festivities too, if you're not reading this I told you to go easy on the Yule Log but you just wouldn't listen, would you? Anyway it's time to turn your attention to the 28th so here's the plan.

9AM Run at Leonardslee
Get in your car and head out from Horsham on the A281 towards Brighton, through Mannings Heath, past the Cisswood Hotel (don't worry I'm getting there) and after another 1/2 mile you will approach a sharp RH corner at the entrance to "Leonardslee Gardens". Turn Left at this junction and after 200 yards you will see a village hall on the left, pretty isn't it? Park here, get out of your car, put on your shoes, eat a banana etc. etc. Must I do everything for you? Follow this with 7 miles of cross-country heaven which is usually v. muddy but as it's been pretty dry this past week maybe not too bad, shame. Probably not a good idea to wear those shiny new shoes you got for Xmas though, no matter how comfy they are. Maps provided but bring your own oxygen.

8PM Pizza Express?
Nothing booked, no time fixed but this is my best guess. Maybe meet B4 in Bar Vin/Black Jug/Doom & Gloom*? Once again it's probably not a good idea to wear your shiny new shoes albeit for a different reason (we'll all take the pi55 out of you and if you go in the Doom & Gloom you will end up standing on bricks). Any feedback?
