Actually the heading is a bit mis-leading. The ride doesn't take part in the show or even watch it. It takes advantage of the closed roads to have a nice quiet potter around the City.

The ride starts 10am from Canada Water Library which is opposite Canada Water Underground Station, SE16 7AR. The 12th is the morning of the Lord Mayor's Show and Werner Wiethege is planning again to lead a ride on closed roads in the City getting there before the procession!

The plan is to get to QW1 via Southwark Park, cross Southwark Bridge and see what's allowed on the other side. If the police don't mind we can enjoy carfree Queen Victoria Street, maybe invade the Temple and come out the embankment and along the CSH to London Bridge.

If the police are a bit jumpy and we look too dangerous, Plan B is to go east on the CSH and cross into Royal Mint Street (maybe a historical footnote for the recent 80th anniversary of Cable Street), then down St Katharine's and another glimpse of QRB Gloriana and then back via CSH to London Bridge.

Bruce is away this weekend so he is hors de combat. Werner's email is dd2008 @ 3112.org (take out the spaces). It's the usual easy-paced and friendly ride returning to Canada Water Library, which sells coffee, for 12 noon.

- Has anyone had food poisoning from icecream at a local cafe? (name removed)

  @Jellybeanz Food poisioning can take 4 hours or so for the symptoms to become apparent. you mention and I quote "This incident was most defintely the ice-cream or the person serving it having dirty hands or gloves" I think that is a sweeping assumption again pointing blame at the cafe. Kids and adults can be violently sick out of the blue for any number of reasons..I've had situations where I have eaten the same as my partner prepared in our own home and then been sick once only-he was ok and after I'd been sick I felt fine. I feel you're very quick to point the finger at a local establishment frequented by many with a good hygene rating. To mention the other thread where you slated a local buisness because you and your child disliked their vegan hot chocolate (or something like that...)..It was'nt to you or your childs taste-fine don't blame the establishment. I'm fussy about coffee and matcha latte some places do coffee I enjoy and ditto Matcha latte-I would not post on a public forum that XXXX's matcha is rubbish because someone else may favour it. one mans meat is another mans poison as they say and my personal taste does not give me good reason to slate a local buisness (except in the case of a certain chain 'on the lordship' which is frankly all round pretty meh.

- Street trees: when is it time to call time ?

  I think we can agree trees are fantastic, beautiful and a welcome part of our environment... the issue occurs as Nigello stated above when they aren't cared for or pruned regularly. When they cause damage to payments and property that isn't right, and unfortunately as trees mature - particularly some varieties - they show that it really isn't practical for them to be planted in close proximity to properties.
