 Two rides for Sat 25th November. Both start at 10am at the Café in Burgess Park.  Simon’s ride is a circular route to Greenwich and Rotherhithe taking 2.5 hours. Jane’s is a 3 hour ride, and only she knows where you are going. I am sure this element of mystery will appeal to some of you! 

Ride 1.  Burgess Park, Cutty Sark, Stave Hill Loop < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/se-london-sights-cycle-ride-tickets-761880062777 >  

Start/finish Fuorvito Café (ex Park Life Café), Burgess Park, Chumleigh Gardens, SE5 0RJ. Meet 10am. Simon S. leading. An easy-paced, pretty flat ride taking in some iconic sights of SE London: the Cutty Sark, the Thames Path, Greenland Dock and Stave Hill - not to mention Millwall FC's stadium (twice!). Stave Hill is a man-made small conical mound close to Russia Woodland in Rotherhithe. You walk up it to get the view – not a hill you cycle up. Nearly all this route is on quiet cycleways. Coffee stop at the Cutty Sark. Fantastic views from Stave Hill. 12 miles. Route map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1HhD8WldGdPFxAVTsiInWeS3QU1wpJZu8&usp=sharing

Ride 2.  Mystery Ride from Burgess Park  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cycle-ride-from-burgess-park-tickets-761884385707>  

As for ride 1, start/finish Fuorvito Café (ex Park Life Café), Burgess Park, Chumleigh Gardens, SE5 0RJ, meet up 10am. Ride leader Jane has given me just the following information for you: “3 hour ride with coffee stop - not sure where to but I'll know on the day.”  Good luck. 

If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. How to cancel link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/help/en-gb/articles/575010/how-to-cancel-your-free-registration/

    • Another recommendation for Lukasz, he sorted out our bifold door. He came at the agreed time, found the issue very quickly, adjusted it, all very carefully and with attention to detail. And he was very reasonably priced as well. 
    • Well sure someone will correct me but years ago, in Singapore and I was quite young so not sure if it is true. but if you were caught stealing, your little finger or just the  tip part with nail was chopped off.  Stigma for  life as all know that was punishment for stealing… no questions asked.Totally agree it is barbaric but equally putting people  into overcrowded prison for minor offences is also not right. Tagging I guess would not work or maybe does… no idea at all.  Not so long ago, heard a talk about how European’s cope/deal with prisoners and how the suggest rate is higher and offences lowered greatly as in not going back to prison for same  or another offence.  The general gist was their approach was each prisoner mattered , was heard and listens to and a suitable package was tailored towards their needs. Not  b one package for all. Not cooped up for the majority of the day - encouraged as an example to cook, garden, grow food, other household stuff  plus study if wanted for courses, languages etc. and mental health, dependency on substance abuse also addressed. Can’t remember if they were paid c pocket money which clearly accumulated or could be used to  I purchase whatever in prison. If they can do it by experimenting and I think but not sure, at the time an English prison was learning why can’t this sort of program be rolled  out throughout UK - cut backs not an excuse - think of the millions lost by govt during Covid…  Maybe it is - no experience in the matter at all.   
    • Why have things got so complicated? I suppose a cat flap with a timer might be useful for people out all day but can't really see the point of them when its so easy to flip a simple mechanical lock. This is how my last cat flap operated but had to be replaced when cat wearing cone of shame tried to escape and broke it. The cat flap I have now is one of those linked to cats microchip but even then there is just a four way dial which allows different kinds of access - or not. Not that cat is bothered, refuses to use it and demands i open the door for her. This is bit of a rant because along with a new boiler I got a new electronic programmer which is really annoying as it takes 5 minutes to change a simple temperature whereas with old programmer it took 10 seconds. Hope you get sorted @oglander and enjoy your future servitude to your feline master.
    • Did you have the same covid jab as you have had over the years?
