Into Ashdown Forest over the Pooh Bridge to the Milne/Shepard Memorial, then a route through the forest to Crowborough. The leader will probably walk an extra 1.5 miles to the local Spoons just for the sake of it

General Notes
The first Winnie the Pooh book was released on October 14 1926. As this is the nearest Saturday to the centenary it seems apposite to do a walk in the area that inspired the stories staring and finishing at stations beginning with the Roman numeral for 100. There is a cafe at the projected lunch spot but beinging your own food/drink is advised in case of any issues
