4. Apparently the Women of World War II are to be remembered and defined by...their clothes.
#Shame Image

Is that his girlfriend or his Mum? ImageImage

Visiting the redeveloped Battersea Power Station for the first time.
It’s amazing.
It cost upwards of £7.5 billion.

Here’s a little 🧵 about parking your bike. Image
2/ When you arrive, you’re greeted by these cute ‘Bike Hub’ signs. Image
3/ The ‘Bike Hub’ is underground.
You can get to it by lift.
Or stairs.
There appears to be no level access.

1/ It’s a beautiful day and I’m on leave so I’m going for a walk.
2/ I’m going to look for football. There’s a lot of football in London.
3/ Dulwich Hamlet FC.
Pride of South London since 1893.

I have a manuscript written in the early 1820s by a clergyman named Robert Fiske. It’s a long, terrible poem called ‘The Seasons’.
So, for a small adventure, I’m going to Fulbourn, near Cambridge, to see the church where he ministered for 45 years.
Then I’m cycling home.
2/ First stop, @hotnumbers in Gwydir Street for breakfast with @RobertHanks then, via Cherry Hinton Brook and Fulbourn windmill, to St Vigor’s, Fulbourn, where Fiske was rector from 1781 to 1826.
Excellent tomb there (not Fiske’s, obv).
On, on.
3/ The next section, from Fulbourn to Saffron Walden started with the pleasure of a Roman road, between Babraham and Linton, through the swell of the Gogmagog Hills (no giants, though, @alixebovey) and then the glorious swoop of north Essex after Hadstock.

 St Paul’s, Bow Common, had the door open to air the church so I took a look inside to see Charles Lutyens’ mosaics in Maguire and Murray’s amazing building. Thank you so much to Mother Bernadette (and Julian) for making me welcome. ImageImageImage

 After that it was a bit of a race: past Dod Street, where I worked at the DHSS in the 80s; St Luke’s Victoria Dock, like a great upturned ship; across the Royal Docks and past Tate & Lyle. ImageImageImageImage

 The last leg was crossing the river at the Woolwich ferry, which is a treat if you do it on a bike once in a while but a bit of a nightmare if you have to queue every day in a van. After that, Greenwich and a welcome drink. ImageImageImageImage

 I stripped the bike to the bearings yesterday and now it’s cleaned and rebuilt, so today I’m out in the sunshine.
New stickers courtesy @UGClimbing and @hgskate with thanks. Image

 First stop, haberdashery: the brilliant @williamgeeUK, in Dalston, for sewing supplies. Thanks for your help. ImageImage
3/
 London Fields for some of the best plane trees in the whole city. ImageImageImage

Holy cow, he’s sitting down.
#Cummings
Sitting down, in the garden, like a man who’s chosen an amusing ‘outdoor’ Zoom background.
Sitting down at no.10 and explaining how, because he has a farm with three houses, it was fine for him to drive to Durham, with a family sick with Covid-19.
The rest is just a long, whiny, indignant story that says, ‘I did nothing wrong and you’re all mean’.
