for the non-morning people amongst you, pretty picture over at [livejournal.com profile] tanya_photos

Yesterday [livejournal.com profile] ladymoonray and I went to Greenwich, where we were waylaid by bookshops (8 books: £16) and Noodle Time: thence to Oxleas Woods, South-East London's most extensive swathe of ancient (post-Ice Age) woodland, where we wandered around -- knew where we were and where we wanted to be, but woodland paths are curiously twisty and lead you away from your goal: the trick is to be aimless -- until we discovered Severndroog Castle (one of the Restoration projects that didn't win) lurking in the woods, all boarded-up and forlorn.

I see it is open this weekend. [livejournal.com profile] ladymoonray?

Also saw a fox; ate blackberries; photographed a monster fuschia; climbed trees; discussed the importance of weight-bearing exercise.

There's a mausoleum in Keston? Cool! Where?

Severndroog is gorgeous. We need to win the lottery and buy it. We can install Tanya as "Mistress of Severndroog", and she can wave imperiously from upper storey windows at the rabble beneath.

you missed out the words 'an axe' after 'wave'

That goes without saying....

(Frankly, at Shooters Hill you'd NEED some heavy weaponry)
