It was a good day out but I left it a bit late and it was a mad cycle from Clapham Junction to Brockwell and got there with 5 minutes to spare . My hands and feet were frozen and my heart was beating so fast and felt so giddy . So walked after 1 Km . I know that's not good for me as once I stopped it's difficult to get going again . Brockwell Lido has an outdoor pool which is not heated . Brrrr . Great views of Battersea , Vauxhall , Shard and London skyline . So I cycled back via Brixton and Lambeth borough . What a colourful area ? The market was full of Carribean veg so bought a couple of yams . Also loved the London buses and place names Lambeth Brixton Elephant and Castle . Full of life and colour . What a great place London is .
Clapham Common - 2022 11 26 Stella Caught the 0724 train from Hampton court . Left the bike at the station so I could walk with Stella who I met at Clapham Junction . I loved walking through Clapham a very different approach to a park run and Stella saw the cafe where we would have pan de chocolait post patkrun . Loads of activity in the park . Walkers , bikers and dog walkers . Very friendly two laps . Cofffe , roll and brolioche in Clapham before we take our different trains home . We took the 7:24 That delivered us to the door Of the Clapham park run Give us more of this Saturday fun It was quite funny that Stella had deposited her token without scanning . She searched the boxes and was able to scan . Including here photos of Clapham high street . It’s part of the parkrun experience. , .
This would be a good day spent with people I met at Newark Focus . Celebration of Darrell’s birthday. A big one . Early pickup by Joyce Sefora and Stella and we met Darrell in Rochester Marina . Laura joined us later driving down later . The marina was just down the road from Phil’s house . Darrell had worked out a plan for the day based on tidal forecast so it was a visit to Chatham , a bit of folk music and a tour of the docked boats . We journeyed out on Darrell’s boat out to the Medway for an hour and hour return . Birthday cake on deck and below deck before journeying home .
