Seven off the train at Box Hill tackled the two steep hills before lunch in Mickleham where another joined having taken a different morning route making n=8 in total.
W=Morning_sunshine_gave_way_to_cloud_with_intermittent_drizzle in the afternoon.Six had a picnic in the churchyard,two went to the Running Horses which was fully booked with diners so, on to the King William IV where one dined and one had coffee. The picnickers extracted them from the pub before continuing to Leatherhead where seven tried out a new cafe called Charlie and Ginger which had good tea and reasonably good coffee and some very sweet cakes which more than replaced the calories burnt up in the morning. The cafe group caught the 15.45 train back to London where rain had set in for the evening..
