Hi there, sorry if I've posted this already... I can't see it in General so I'm posting again. Here's a link to my local Kent walks website, all within reach of East Dulwich/Peckham/Lewisham. The latest post on the home page includes easter egg hunts and guided walks for the coming long weekend at great places within 20 miles. The link is:

Thank you, this is great. I plan to take my kids to do the Emmetts Garden easter egg hunt and then the circular walk

Thanks so much for posting your blog on here - we thoroughly enjoyed the Downe Circular today. It was perfect for our 5 and 3 year olds. Posted some pics on my blog http://hernehillmum.com/2016/03/28/a-family-walk-around-down-house/


I'll be working my way down the list of suggested walks during the year I expect!

Thanks amac. I did the Downe walk this afternoon with my 2 sons who are 11 and 9 and we had a lovely time. We left ED about midday and got to Downe within an hour. The walk was the perfect length for an afternoon followed by a visit to the tea shop. Home by 5pm! We accidently went a bit off the route in places but easily found our way back again. Thanks also Pamela78 for recommending it. We will also be working our way through the list.

Thanks again.

Amac, we did another of your routes today. This afternoon we went out and did Walk 2: Shoreham (Kent) Circular. We all enjoyed outselves and the walk was very easy to follow. Finished off with a soft drink outside the pub in Shoreham before driving home.

There wasn't very much mud at all and there is just 1 steep part so I think young children would be able to complete it.

There are a few perfect picnic spots next to the river so we will be back in the summer to do that and have a paddle too.

The route would also suit a trail run really nicely and I am hoping to go back and do that sometime soon.

Thanks amac for plotting the route.

Goodliz, really glad to hear you enjoyed the walk. The Shoreham walks are easy to extend: if you continue up the steep hill to the woods at the top there are more paths to explore that can all bring you back to Shoreham eventually if you keep your bearings. Shoreham isn't bad for mud; but One Tree Hill and Ide Hill walks are back to quagmirish in parts thanks to heavy showers this week.

Absolutely Goodliz... and the great news is the mud has now almost all gone, and the bluebells are still just about in their prime though will be fading very soon now. Best walk for bluebells is Ide Hill circular (can't miss 'em). Shoreham Circular walk has great bluebells if you extend the walk by about 15 minutes by walking through Meenfield Wood at the top of ridge (ie, continue up the hill to the top before turning right on path). Here's the site again... https://localkentwalks.wordpress.com/

    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
    • Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!
    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
