Ramblers Clubs

Yeah ..I know....just the mere name invokes thoughts of the green wellie brigade but theyre not all like that...really
I walk a lot anyway when I'm over there and then about 5 years ago I met someone who drinks in the same local as I do and he put me on to one. I know that there's tons of them over there and theyre free to join. Its a great way to get some exercise, meet some of the locals and find out a little of the history of an area. Its a cheap alternative to gym fees and a way to familiarize yourself with ones surroundings. Just a thought......

Here's a link that covers local life in hundreds of towns, cities and villages throughout the U.K with addresses of gyms, walking clubs, parks etc.

 Ta so much for the info.I had never heard of a Ramblers Club,but what a great idea.

 I love to walk,although I havent really done it in a long while.It really is a great way to get into shape and/or lose weight!

Being able to talk walks around my adopted country,I cant wait really

   I do appreciate the link for the local life page too.I have Up My Street,but this just gives me another one to look at.
