London LDWA

London LDWA had some great publicity in the latest Strider, with a very entertaining article by Gill Struthers about a joint London and Essex & Herts saunter over the original Capital Challenge route earlier this year. Tomorrow we have a rematch over the new route. Organiser Jean O'Reilly has kindly extended the finishing date of the Anytime to the end of August, so a team consisting of Kathy Crilly, Pete Buffham and me will be carrying the flag for London while Essex & Herts features an unchanged side in the shape of Gill, Ginny Powell and Mick Dodge. Let's hope this morning's fine weather persists. I can't be the only one who set out to walk last week in pleasant sunshine only for it to start bucketing down as soon as I was a long way from home. Though I'm probably the only one who didn't think to pack waterproofs. Anyway, here's a nice picture of us enjoying the pergola on Hampstead Heath last time around.
