sometimes we just want to get out and about

I am greatly encouraged to get out and about walking around London recently. The spring and good weather help. My first walk/ bike ride, was from Brixton to the South Bank on what promised to be an extremely polluted day! I

It was very warm and a grey mist hung over London. Firstly I cycled round the back streets and got to Waterloo for 11am. I know the route pretty well, so I know where to tie the bike around Waterloo.

I sat down inside the South Bank Centre, with my Mac Air book, intending to do some work.!, but I gave up on that, due to the festival hall hosting some kids dance /music event. I then walked over to Covent Garden to get myself a t-shirt, walked back & picked up my bike, then cycled back to Brixton.

Walking around and in Blackheath/ Greenwich

Another day out and about in London, where we walked down to Greenwich Market from Blackheath, where I picked up some great illustrated cards from THE DM Collection wwww.thedmcollection.com and had some lunch.

How mean is time? Greenwich Mean Time, the clock in Greenwich park

Then a ferry along the Thames down to the Embankment

View from Thames Clipper

Walking over bridge from Embankment heading to Brixton

Having walked about Greenwich, we decided to take the clipper to the Embankment; as it was such a lovely day we, decided not to take a bus back and & walked back to Brixton.

The day after I joined up with the Finchley walking group from Highgate to Angel which was about 6 miles.

Additionally Last Sunday I walked with the South Bank Walking Group on a 11 mile walk in the Guildford area.  May looks to be a promising month, I’m working as a poll clerk in the General Election then going to Berlin the day after. There is a choice of Walks and a couple of Bank Holidays and many events happening, so I am going to be spoilt for choice.

This blog is dedicated to Karen & thanks for the free drinks at The New Order exhibition at The Proud Gallery Camden.

As promised I aim to get a blog out by the end of the month.

Until next time see you then
