Spring is heeeeeerrrrreeeee! The 21th of March is the first official day of Spring, and we LOVE IT! This winter has been very, very wet and depressing so let's hope that now, we are up to a bit of sun. What does Spring means around us? Well, flowers are blooming, trees are greening ( I know, incorrect term but it rimes and sounds so cool!) animals are shagging, singing, and migrating back to our beautiful lands and is there a better place to see all this magic than the forests and heathlands? Nope! So let's go for a new beautiful hike in one of England's most stunning forestry region. I haven't taken any group to this particular spot yet, so if you are a regular and want to see a brand new beauty trail, this is your hike... We will begin our hike in the little village of Witley and will finish the trip in Milford. If you like real nature like I do, you will be enjoying every step of the way as we cross woodlands, heathlands and moors. You know what a forest is, but do you know what a heath or a moore are? Well, it is simply a rare and unique habitat and Britain is home to over 20% of the world's heathlands and they can be impressively beautiful! And on the top of that are home to an impressive array of wildlife, some extremely rare such as the nightjars and dartford warbler, so keep your eyes peeled... Evidently afterwards, we are likely to make our way to a restaurant or pub for some tasty food before we head back to good old London. INFORMATION: COST: £17 via PayPal for the guide's fee Under £20 in cash for the train, we will have a 35% discount with a group saver if we buy our train tickets together and will get an off peak day return meaning that we do not actually pay for the return journey.

This will cover safety, and an introduction to some of the controls. Once in the plane, you are given headphones so that you can hear conversations between your instructor and air traffic control. You will also be able to communicate with each other so you can be guided through your first lesson. Once in the air, you will be able to take the controls but your pilot will take over to land the plane at the airfield and taxi back. **What to do:** * Ask questions, your instructor will be happy to answer them * Wear sensible shoes and clothing * Switch off your mobile ‘phone * Remove and sharp or loose objects from your pockets * Wait to be escorted to the aircraft * Avoid the propellor at all times, even when stopped * Assist your instructor in the air by keeping a good lookout for other aircraft * Avoid embarrassment and say if you start to feel unwell **What else do I need to know?** * A camera may be carried provided that a wrist-strap secures it * Any bags should be left with your companions or at reception * Your instructor will explain the operation of seats, harnesses and doors * In the event of an emergency please vacate the aircraft to the rear and continue to a safe distance * Should you have any queries regarding these briefing notes, our reception staff and your instructor will be happy to clarify * Maximum Weight limit is 18 stone **Location** Staplefield Airfield Ongar Rd, Romford RM4 1SJ **Travel** We can get the Train/Elizabeth Line to Romford Station.
