Recommended Posts

NOTE 2. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below.

 

On the 11th May we have 2 rides planned. Both scheduled for 3 hours with 10 am starts. Eva is heading SE to Eltham while Jane is going west to Wandsworth Park.

Ride 1.  Eltham Surprises.  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/eltham-surprises-cycle-ride-tickets-895593653727 >

Ride will visit the 4 Ps of Eltham - a Pleasance, a Palace, a Pavillion and Parks, plus a Winter Garden. Late coffee stop at the cafe in Oxleas Wood. This ride has 2 fairly steep hills, where the ride leader might step down from the bike and push it up, it’s ca 24 km long and including a visit to the Pavillion and the coffee break stop will take us ca 3 hours. Eva leading. Start at Cutty Sark Gardens, 10 am. 

 Ride 2. Burgess Park to Wandsworth Park  < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/burgess-park-to-wandsworth-park-cycle-ride-tickets-895588588577 >

Easy paced ride taking an outward route via Battersea Park and Thames Path - will probably return the same way after coffee in Wandsworth Park. The 3 km of path from Battersea Park to the Wandle is always a joy – right next to the river, traffic free and wide enough to relax. About 27 km, Jane leading. Start 10am from the Café in the middle to the park, off Chumleigh St/Albany Rd

 

 Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult.  Same for “adults at risk”.

Please do not turn up for this ride unless you are registered as we wish to strictly limit numbers.

    • I am sure what the new plan is but who knows how the postal service will work from here onwards 
    • My experience is that my local letter box does have week-day-ly collections - but I think very early in the morning, not at the old 'around 5.00pm' times. There are several daily collections from the box outside the Forest Hill Road sub-post office. I don't think the 'Monday' tab is now ever changed. Mail collections from boxes have got nothing to do with the service we (don't) get from the Peckham Delivery Office. Your Wednesday 12th posting would probably only have been collected on Thursday 13th, if it was posted after 9.00am. If it was being delivered in East Dulwich (where the Peckham DO does come into play) then getting it by the following Tuesday is probably par for the course.
    • Are there no daily collections from post boxes any more? On Wednesday Feb 12 I posted a Valentine's Card in the postbox which is about 20 metres from our house to make sure it arrived by Feb 14 (yes I know I could've put it thru letterbox but that's not as romantic is it). After I posted it I noticed the little metal thingy said "Monday" but I thought this must be a mistake and had not been changed. However, Valentine's Day came and went and no card arrived. In fact it arrived on the following Tuesday, Feb 18 so I'm guessing the Monday collection metal thingy was correct. Has it ever been announced officially that there are no longer daily collections from letterboxes? I remember a time, not even that long ago, when the red postman pat van would pull up at least twice a day, every weekday.    
    • My lovely tuxedo cat, Rexy, has been missing since Wednesday which is very out of character. Rodwell Road area, SE22. He is a rescue cat so really quite timid with people he doesn’t know. If you spot him, could you please contact me? Many thanks. He is chipped and neutered.  Photos attached.
