Horsham and Crawley CTC
Starting to feel all Christmassy
Decided to luncheon at The Gate
With turkey or lamb upon the plate
Salmon or veggie available too.
Anton had some work to do:
Collating requirements,
Collecting the payments,
Leading us to the rendezvous.
There at Parkgate, by The Surrey Oaks
We met Barbara and two Horsham blokes
Norman and Mick – they’d ridden too quick
And been waiting at the cold roadside
For the Crawley contingent to finally arrive
Then heading south we took Partridge Lane
And Orltons and Langhurst – both lanes again
Last turn on the ride and glide to the pub
For Pickled Partridge and luvverly grub
Barbara made a speech and gave out a prize
Anton, Mick or Bob – one of those guys
Won it for riding on most club rides
And leading several others besides
Turning out in weather pleasant or grim
The Mick Horley trophy was awarded to him
With daylight fast fading, time to head home
And struggle to write this blog as a poem!
