  The Shrewsbury House weekly timetable has been out of print for a little while now, although I hear it may eventually make a comeback. Meanwhile, and considering the possibility that it may not, I decided it might be useful to put one here…

  For reasons of accessibility I do intend to type it out properly (character recognition didn’t work on my lowly 10mp stills), but here are some snaps that are mostly readable (click to zoom):

  monday	tuesday	wednesday	thursday	friday	saturday

• Green Chain Walking Festival

  As part of the south east london Green Chain Walking Festival , a guided walk from Eltham Palace to the Thames Barrier is taking place that visits in Oxleas Woods and Severndroog Castle en route, tieing in with the Open House events there and at other stops along the way.

  Walk London Audio Guides have been provided for the different sections of the chain, including those that make this pathway; although they go clockwise, this particular trek is being done the other way, presumably as it involves more downhill walking, well it is seven miles long after all! The guides make for curious listening, and even feature cameo appearances from boycie. I’ve put the audio alongside the maps, which include the Green Chain in red lines, and the Capital Ring route in yellow.
