Less work, more play. Passionate about patient health and care. Keen cook. Animal lover. Stroller. Image maker. Award winning embroidery (1978). Always curious.
Inspired by @fugueur@RachelLichtenst Iain Sinclair and recently reading @JLewisStempel a trip to the north side of the Thames estuary was required. A glorious day to stroll from Tilbury Town to Stanford Le Hope.
The finale! The London Loop has now been completed 🥳 It’s a pity that there isn’t a plaque at s24 (Purfleet-unless I missed it) as on some other sections. Grateful to @LDNLoop and their regular updates especially on very muddy bits and @fugueur for inspiration.
@grannyallan_val@mancunianmedic Regardless of how good this one is, do try the Nigella (or Claudia Roden’s) Middle Eastern orange cake too - simmering and creating an orange purée is just joy and pure alchemy).
Walked the 3rd and 4th (final section) of the Green Link Walk...Angel, Tate Modern and Peckham 19k steps 😁 It was great for metalled paths. Now to resume the London Loop from section 14. Great route - highly recommend this. Thank you @innerlondonramb for your website.
Yesterday was gorgeous for completing part 2 of this brilliant trail. Saw a kingfisher in the Wetlands (as joining via Tottenham Hale was easier) alongside the green, superb architecture and inspiration such as through de Beauvoir conservation https://t.co/KOkfLkY2mk
Way too muddy for the next section of the @LDNLoop so opted for the first section of the Green Link Walk. Cold but well mettled underfoot. Thank you https://t.co/ENPztZVGbx for your excellent website and helpful guides.
London Loop: Section 11 @LDNLoop Well signed, but do take care - and no white shoes - as the stretch by the Ruver Colne is currently very muddy in places.
London Loop section 9 #LDNLoop Topping and tailing with my local station ....over 10 miles. Over 60 miles of the Loop completed!! I shall sleep very well.
London Loop section 3 #LDNLoop thought it was going to rain but it didn't. Topping and tailing with my local station and into London....over 11 miles. I shall sleep well.
