The Lawfords and The Old Smithy

Imagine our disgust!

We were walking peacefully along Ling Lane, near Lawford Heath, when we saw beside the road … ugly evidence of fly tipping! Our members were of course outraged – as you can see from the photo. But we continued on our way and came to a field with a fine crop of plants which we could not immediately identify with confidence. Undeterred, two of our members took out their mobile phones and with their apps were able to specify two different varieties of mustard plus a white flowered radish.

This meant that when we returned to Church Lawford for lunch in The Old Smithy, we were free to ruminate on the meaning of life and other profound philosophical fancies … such as why one member seems irresistibly drawn to order the Moby Dick each time!
