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!

    • Who is disrespecting the term “Blighty”   I see people questioning it’s common usage in 2025 i see people calling out organisations who use it to scam people  but the term Blighty itself? Nope “we r” in front of anything does add context mind you 
    • "Blighty" is a British slang term for Britain or England, ultimately derived from the Urdu word "vilāyatī," meaning "foreign" or "European," according to Wiki, and was mainly used in the 19th Century and then WWI. It is thus a non English loan word. But I'm sure you knew that. 
    • Forum members not knowing or disrespecting the term "good old Blighty' need to give their lack of  educational heads a wobble! 
    • I didn't ask you whether or not Brexit happened! I am sadly only too well aware that it did! I asked you what were its positive effects! I'm not able to quote the whole post I'm referring to and your answer, apparently, so here's a screenshot .  You don't seem to have answered anything I asked?
