I was still not really up to riding my bike by the February ride, and the forecast was going to be cold and freezing again. Undeterred, I offered to meet anyone who wanted to join me at Kingsway cafe, for coffee and a chat.
But when I arrived Kingsway cafe was shut! I had even notified them earlier in the week that we were calling in, but had not heard back; the ladies in the Kingsway charity shop had the number for the manager so I called her, and she apologised that they were short of volunteers this week.
On my arrival Elaine was outside waiting. We chatted for a while, as we decided what to do - it was such a lovely sunny day!
Then Anna walked up, we explained that the cafe was shut, and we were pondering what to do. I was considering all going back to my house, but Anna had her doggy with her.
We updated Anna with our conversation so far.
Then Mary arrived; she had said she may drive over to meet us. We explained that the cafe was shut today, and relayed some of our chat again to Mary.
Quite a little group now.
Then Sarah arrived. We all explained that the cafe was shut, and what we had been chatting about - Sarah suggested we walk over to Okells in Hoole, and we agreed we may as well have a little walk and chat over coffee, it was a lovely sunny morning after all!
