On 28 April, Sue and I enjoyed giving a little slide show to the Stockport Walking Group. It covered trips to the Drakensberg and the Cape regions of South Africa.
Tonight we were booked for a second delivery of the same slide show, with Sue in charge and me as projectionist. This time the willing victims were Tim and Kate Wood’s local church group in Southport.
A more welcoming group could not be imagined. We enjoyed giving the approx 45 minute show to about 15 folk, some of whom had been to places that were in the show. Happy memories all round.
Tim and Kate are TGO Challengers. Their hospitality is second to none, and we were treated to a superb dinner before the meeting. Their house is full of cards – Tim’s 75th birthday, 54th wedding anniversary cards, and get well cards for Kate. We do hope that she can overcome her health problems, and that we’ll be seeing the familiar profiles of ‘Little and Large’ on next year’s TGO Challenge.
The photo (I’ve not really mastered the art of scanning slides, I’m afraid) shows Sue above a cloud inversion in the Winelands, with the flat summit of Table Mountain visible in the far distance.
