This is positively the last communication from me before Christmas!
Anyway - if you're not already busy thinking about Paul Lawrence's longer spring and summer trips away (details here), then don't forget London LDWA has a couple of end-of-year treats for you to enjoy in the slightly nearer term.
First up is David Rossington's 18 mile riverside hike from Waterloo this Sunday, 28 Dec.
And then, looking a bit further ahead, to usher in the New Year, Susanne Waldschmidt is offering a New Year's Day evening tour of London.
All the details are below for you to enjoy. But in the meantime, I'd like to wish you on behalf of LDWA London a very happy Christmas and a successful and hike-full New Year.
Cheers
Adam
