That sounds right up my street, but unfortunately me and Sparks will be away for this one.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

around a church

or church as in the area?

is there any interestin facts about church?

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

WALK????? ARE YOU MAD?????? - what, and waste valuable drinking time?

Or is this a crafty ruse to get Accywebbers to work up a thirst? Waste of time, ever known one of us without a thirst?

Well, I might consider it .....

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

unfortunatly staggerinman cannot get back online yet, so he's asked me to add to this thread , well here goes,
saturday 26th march, walk round church & along the canal.
meet at the stag for 10-30am, then first stop will be at church kirk church, there you will be allowed to climb up the tower, to view surrounding distances ( get the camera's ready) THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME THAT THE TOWER WILL BE OPENED, so if people are interested please come & join us, the tower will close by 12 noon, there are interesting things to see in the church for those of us that can't do the climb. after the church we will procceed to have an interesting walk on the canal.

arriving back at the stag around 1pm ( depends who dawdles ).

then it will be up to yourselves wot you do.
( don't forget the night do )////

REaster Saturday and church kirk tower
 

Why is it the last time the Tower will open? Is it unsafe or something? Photo kindly taken by Owd Bert

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

don't know, atarah , but thats wot the vicar has told staggeringman, im assuming, like you that it may be getting too old.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Would it be possible to meet you all at Church Kirk a little bit late? Seeing as how we are here this weekend after all we'd really like to have a look in the church and maybe up the tower depending on how precarious it is but my ten year old daughter also has an invitation to something in Blackburn at 10:30. We could drop her off and then get back to Church Kirk maybe around 10:40/10:45. We would also need to get back to pick her up from Blackburn at 1:30.

Would it be OK if we brought the 13 year old with us? We won't be able to stop at the Stag but we can get round there later on in the evening - not that I've got an Easter bonnet because I wasn't anticipating being here.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

I would imagine you would be most welcome Willow;wish I could join you all but working on sat;will be there in the evening though!{minus bonnet;although Kelsey is threatening to make me one!**

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Looks like me, the wife and daughter will be coming down for the walk.. Might have one or two in the stag afterwards as well :)

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

That's great news Roy;can you hang on there till 7;30 though;that's the earliest I can make it,be nice to say thank you to you for all the hard work you have put in!:D

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

i shouldn't think there will be a problem willow for sat morn, sounds as if there is more than one or two of us going, no probs for night do either, see you then on both events. ( didn't i do a good job on roy & family ) he he he he.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Don’t forget your walking boots tomorrow as you may need them.

We shall be there, so see you later..

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Might just pop along myself for this one.. Will have my little terror with me, so i might have to duck out if she gets tired. (i'll just wait back in the pub:p )

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Where's The Stag??....Not doing the walk,i hate walking unless its too the bar.....i might fancy a pop over!!

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Thanks for the info on where the pub is!!:(

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Sorry Jason missed this post. If you find Ignition car sales (Central) head off down dill hall lane with the sports center on your left go to the pelican crossing, and the stag is on the corner on your right.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Has everybody dried out yet? Did you notice how it stopped raining once we'd all got back to The Stag? I think I got soaked right through to my middle. :e37: :e37: :e37: :e37:

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

well i've just got in, no i've been to town after the stag, shopping, well as willow said , we all got drowned , i was nearly a whale, practising of course, i didn't put my walking boots on ,(clever that i am) & started to do a slide to the water, ha ha ha as we walked along the canal , we went to church kirk church first it was very interesting, the windows & everything are something to see !!! its a eleventh century built church with lots of character about it. well worth the day . thanks staggeringman for arranging that for accyweb & may i also say thank you to mandy , staggers wife for laying on a feast of sausage sandwiches & hot cross buns, very welcome they were too.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Thank you all, Willow, Mimi and myself had a really enjoyable walk and the views from the Church tower was fantastic. Talking of which, is this the hand of God?.....or was an Accy webber to blame :rolleyes:

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Well the photos are now on show. I shall leave the album open if anyone wishes to add their photos to the album.
My head hurts!!!

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Excellent views from the top of the church, i'll be in there myself soon, my niece's daughters christening.

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

Be nice if you could tell us who is who in the pics.
Nice to put a face to the banter!
:D

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

That all depends if they want other folks know who they are.(sorry, I’m drunk.hehe. it’s been a brill day)

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

len brilliant photo's as usual , pity i couldnt get uo the tower very envious of all who went up but great reports of you all when you came down

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

There's no way I could have gone up there either, nothing to do with heights, everything to do with claustrophobic narrow spaces. Great to see the views you all had from up there.

I've got some other pics to add and will try to do it before the end of the day, it might get very late before I get back though.


If you want to know which ones are me and Busman join the JamButty forum and have a look for us on there. ;)

LYNDSAY, clear your pm box its full trying to pm you //

Re: Easter Saturday!
 

I’d just like to say thanks to staggeringman for organizing our walk-about. It was obvious to us that you had put a lot of time and effort into sorting thing out i.e. information gathering, printing hand-outs etc. It was just a pity that the weather had taken a turn for the worst therefore ending the walk part way through. Never the less we still enjoyed our selves and the refreshments prepared by Mandy (Sausage butts and Hot crossed buns) where very much appreciated and very well received when we got back to the Stag.
Many thank to Mick, Willow and Mimi for contributing to the Gallery by adding their photos to the Album, making it a much more interesting Album to view.
:)
