My scouse mate Mark is an avid walker, so with both of us having nothing better to do and the sun shining we decided to head of towards Tring and meander towards Wendover. But alas, we missed our train from Euston and the next wasn't for another hour. We decided to walk down to the Thames and into deepest Bermondsey and Rotherhithe, a fabled land home of the scaffolder!
We stopped at the 'Angel', a Sam Smith's pub on the river and then at the 'Mayflower' in so called Rotherhithe Village. This is a lovely part of London, very calming and evocative. We then walked to 'Stave Hill Ecological Park, a great place with a man made hill with a view across docklands. From here we walked to GreenLand Dock and stopped for a pint in the 'Wibbley Wobbley' floating pub, a gem of a place full of locals and other eccentrics.
A lovely walk and a great day out.
