two free sociable cycle rides Sat July 27th, one long, one short


Recommended Posts

NOTE. Please register for rides on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, links below.
 
On the 27th July we have two rides, very different in character.  One is a new circular version of Jamie’s “Awayday” to Kent. The other is Bruce’s annual “Big Butterfly Count” local short ride
 
July 27th, Ride 1, Circular ride from Faversham via Whitstable and Canterbury     < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/circular-cycle-ride-from-faversham-via-whitstable-and-canterbury-tickets-950066222647   >
30 mile ride starting 10am at Faversham Station and finishing back there at around 4:30pm. This is a much longer ride than our usual pattern and involves some off-road unsurfaced paths. Read the detailed instructions in the attached document. Only attempt this ride if you and your bike are in condition to complete it.  If in doubt, feel free to contact Jamie and discuss it (contact details in attached doc).
Our annual search for butterflies in Southwark and Lambeth to coincide with the national Big Butterfly Count.  10 mile loop starting from Dulwich Park Café (middle of the park) at 10am with Bruce leading. Hope to visit Green Dale Fields, Ruskin Park, Elam St Open space, Myatts Fields, Burgess Park and Peckham Rye Park. Back to Dulwich about 12.30. Hope for sunny weather.

    • 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.
