MEN’S WALK - JUNE 15th 2011
A group of ten men met at St. David’s to travel to Thornton Reservoir for a gentle evening walk.
Afterwards most of us enjoyed a lovely meal at the ‘Bricklayer’s Arms’ in Thornton village, the steak & mushroom pies were enormous but delicious. However one intrepid walker decided to try the ‘Malaysian Beef Curry’ - and found it almost too hot to eat - a jug of pouring cream helped to cool it down a bit, much to the hilarity of all except the person eating it (who shall remain nameless except that we all advised him to warn neighbours in Sharpley Avenue to keep their windows closed!) The evening ended with an unexpected performance by the Leicester Morris Dancers. Thanks to Adrian Bristoll and Alan Liggins for organising the event. Most of us can’t wait for the next!!
On the way from the pub down to the reservoir - the water level was very low as can be seen in the picture.
The Morris Men started their dancing at 9.00pm. Hope no-one was asleep.

On Saturday 29th May 2010 Robert and Louise were married at St. David's.
The weather may not have been the brightest - but the day certainly was. The church and flowers looked magnificent and the service, conducted by the Revd. John Stevenson, was brilliant in every way - thanks be to God!
Here are just a few pictures, from various sources, of the happy day.
Robert and Louise would like to sincerely thank all those who helped in any way both before, during and after the ceremony, and also to thank everyone who came to the service and made the occasion such a happy one.
