Greenwich to Danson Park.


10am to 1.30pm. Start finish at Cutty Sark, near the tunnel entrance. Eva leading. This is quite a long (18 miles) ride for us with significant short hills (550 feet total climbing). Starts though Greenwich Park then across to cycle paths and quiet streets that parallel the A2, passing on the way the Well Hall Pleasaunce. Leaves the A2 route at Wendover Way and reaches Danson Park from Danson Lane. Coffee break at the really lovely Fleur de Th? in Danson House.

This is Bike Week. Try a Healthy Ride tomorrow - Saturday 11th June.

We have 2 rides. One is fully subscribed already, but there is lots of space on the Round the Parks romp from Peckham through, amongst others, Burgess, Ruskin and Dulwich Parks. Register at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/southwark-round-the-parks-cycle-ride-tickets-354671109837. Or just turn up at the last minute. Ideal for anyone you want to persuade out on their bike. Just 2 hours, no big hills, lots of lovely paths in the parks.

And a nice forecast, warm, dry, plenty sunshine.

Cheers,

Bruce

      Damp cellar floor is it a problem

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Our cellar was damp constantly and we were told that there were many underground streams in Dulwich (which eventually end up in the river in Belair Park),  Agree it is connected  to the water table. We had all old plaster removed from walls and replastered,

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By bonzodog · Posted

      Andy did a good job for me doing up a flat - bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen for a very reasonable rate. He’s a top notch painter and decorator and can turn his hand to many other trades too. I’d highly recommend him - nothing was too much trouble.

      Love Dulwich Restaurant

      By Pugwash · Posted

      A ramp would not be suitable for Love Dulwich. Gradient would be too steep, also length of ramp would go into road. We considered a ramp in the house to get down 2 steps (internal) but an OT who measured said we would need a clear space of around 9 feet plus because of the height of steps.

      Silver Fern Landscapes - Recommendation

      By TAG · Posted

      Over the past few months, Jan from Silver Fern Landscapes has completed several projects for us.  (He was recommended by a neighbour.)  We have been very pleased with his work.  Some details are below: Built and replaced several trellis fence panels.  In one part it was very complicated due to a large vine that had grown into/around the trellis.  He was able to save the vine, having unpicked it from the old trellis and then securing it to the new.  The vine went into a bit of shock, but is now thriving. Repaired the top frame to our garden side-return door, replacing rotten wood, and repainting the new to match. Repaired the loose tiles in our front walkway Along the way, during his visits, Jan also gave advice on various topics, such as how to best care for: our recently re-planted lawn, a tree that lost a large branch, and the vine mentioned above.  His working style is straight forward...he shows up when he says he will, discusses what needs to be done, provides timely quotes, completes the work as agreed, and sends an invoice. No drama, no hassle.  We will definitely be calling on Jan again when future garden-related projects arise! silverfernlondon.co.uk/silver_fern_landscapes.html
