London Fields – 03/09/11
It was another nice sunny day on Saturday and so a prefect day for a little jaunt to Hackney. That’s what we thought, and so did the English Defence League. Whoops. I’ve had a lot of experience recently in “being … Continue reading →

Causton Street Playground – 02/09/11
Hot town, summer in the city. OK, so technically it’s autumn in the city but the second day of September was a darned sight hotter than most of August (25c in Borough) so we were off in search of a … Continue reading →

Archbishops Park
Check it out! It’s another sarf-of-the-river, lambef walk type tip! (And yes, we actually go up Lambeth Walk to get to this one). To be fair, it’s also incredibly close to St Thomas’ Hospital and not far from Waterloo. So, … Continue reading →

The rest of Battersea Park
There’s nothing like a bit of controversy and Battersea Park is nothing if not controversial. It’s home to the Adventure Playground that made it into the national news for charging £2.50 per person. Britain truly was Disgusted of SW11. But … Continue reading →

New Cross in the rain 16/07/11
Not the most promising title, I know…. We have some friends that live in New Cross and they were having a BBQ today (in the rain…cause we’re British). Roo was getting restless inside, so we took him to the park … Continue reading →

Coram’s Fields
Now, if you’re a BLW-er, I give you permission to skip this one. You don’t need me to sell Coram’s to you. Let me quote here from a little man who is a big Coram’s fan (not mine) it’s a … Continue reading →

Holland Park – 25/06/11
I have one (hyphenated) word for Holland Park and that is “crazy-assed”. We walked there from the tube and you follow a grand, sweeping terrace that looks like the London of Noel Streatfield books until you find a small door … Continue reading →
