Hi sorry for late response forgot to click on "send replies" button.


Help-Ma-Boab: I walked down past Kings hospital, left on to Camberwell New Road and then strainght, past Oval, Vauxhall, across Vauxhall Bridge. I double-checked timings on the Map My Run app on my phone and saw that I started it from Denmark Hill station so add more time for Peckham Rye. Still worth it!


Jeremy: see above


Jessie: see above and I walked fast, an average pace of 7.1 kph


Someone I know lives on Ondine and works in Pimlico and walks there and back every day. She says it takes her 45 mins each way. Her points were that it was much more pleasant then overcrowded public transportation; it is healthy exercise; it is free; and you know exactly how long it will take unlike breaking down buses/trains/cars/burst pipes etc. Must say that after trying it I was pleasantly surprised and would do it again except when it is raining!

Thanks Dun. I reckonI could cut through to Camberwell a more direct way from Peckham Rye. Might give it a go when mornings get lighter.

Take a left at Coldharbour Lane, and then a right. The side streets will take you, via Myatts Park and the ambulance station in Foxley Road, virtually to the Oval without going near a main Road. It will also cut 15 minutes from your walking journey and is a far more interesting walk!

    • Using the smart CCTV cameras is your best strategy - particularly if they have adequate infra-red capability. Setting them to be triggered by line crossing or areas of intrusion is worthwhile setting up as is linking them to a PIR sensor. The PIR could also be used to activate a sounder but that might upset your other neighbours. I have a few cameras around our property and I enjoy reviewing the recordings and apart from foxes and birds, I catch the occasional opportunistic thief on camera - like this one last Tuesday. If you need any help, please drop me a PM. S7.mp4
    • Not in Ed, but I was in NE England over the weekend and saw an otter in the wild! Never seen one before, it was quite lovely.
    • Well unless the heron got them later, there were the  two cootlets. I think some others of this year's babies must have escaped the heron. Many years ago (and possibly still, though I never see them any more) there was a whole heron family on the island  - mum, dad and youngster. I don't know how long herons live. Maybe this one is the grown up youngster.
