Can anyone believe that I have written Halloween (related posts for 7 years now. When I started this blog I thought I’d be lucky to still be going in a month. As with everything else, I always try to keep my Halloween posts grounded as I think that makes them more realistic and also more… Continue reading An eerie journey along old Corpse Roads

A walk along the Grand Union Canal
It’s been a very warm and sunny Bank Holiday weekend in London and I managed to wangle it so that I didn’t spend every minute of it working. During a few hours of spare time I decided to go on a 9 mile (15km) circular walk, the majority of which was through parkland and along… Continue reading A walk along the Grand Union Canal

On Easter Sunday, I went to Church and I took my iPad so thought you might like to see some of the photos which I took.

We’ve seen horses, foxes, turkeys, chickens, rabbits, deer and about 20 species of… Continue reading A spring time walk through The Shire
A Guided tour walk around my neighbourhood
I love to walk whenever I can and I am fortunate that I live pretty much on the last street of the huge sprawl of London. I might not have as much as I want but I do have countryside almost on my door step so when I have time this is one of my… Continue reading A Guided tour walk around my neighbourhood
A lakeside walk
Following the culture and forests of the last few days yesterday we decided to do a nice steady lakeside walk. We decided to go to Wast Water which is much less touristic than other lakes with no villages, paddle-steamers or through roads to distract us. I have been carrying an injury the last few weeks… Continue reading A lakeside walk
