A Letter to You All From John and Sue Ashbridge

By the time you read this, Sue and I will have left Oxfordshire and will have moved to the village of Dersingham in West Norfolk, about mid-way between King’s Lynn and Hunstanton.

During our time with the OFS we have made many friends and will miss your company and walking the many footpaths, bridleways and lanes around the county.

Having led many walks during my ten years of membership, I hope that those of you that joined me enjoyed walking them as much as I did planning them.

We have some special memories: particularly of our honeymoon, six years ago, when we joined the residential group which stayed at the holiday park in Croyde Bay. It is lovely to remember the private reception which was laid on for us by the rest of the group.

The area around our new home has plenty of lovely country walks. (Sandringham Estate is only just down the road – perhaps we might get an invite to tea!!). There are two walking groups nearby so we should soon have our walking boots on again to explore the local countryside.

We send our apologies to those of you that we have missed recently and so were unable to say goodbye to (the move having come about more quickly than we thought) but we hope to keep in touch to let you know how we are getting on.

May we wish the OFS many more years ahead in protecting and improving the countryside of Oxfordshire for the future generations to come.

Best Wishes to you all from John & Sue Ashbridge.

P.S. Keep Walking!!
