Sowerby Bridge, 17th August
A Sowerby Bridge meet up is planned for Friday 17th August, 6:30pm. Usual place for parking (Sat nav, HX6 2LN).
Unfortunately on this occasion you will need to bring your own boats/gear as I have no way to get and transport additional kit from the container and Andy will have only just got home from his holiday.
Hopefully we’ll see some of you there though 🙂
Cheers,
Tony
