Kent has so much to offer and I barely know it really. Last week was a chance to explore a little bit more. There are so many walking routes around the Hayes/Wickham area. A friend took me on a walk through woods there once before. This time we went a slightly different way. Lots of flowers coming out now and the paths were mud free, as we have had so little rain of late.
The commons are south east of Croydon, a very busy town. It always amazes me that there is so much green space in and around London. There are thirty-two London Boroughs in all. I think I have said before that London spreads out into various counties. When I tell people I live in London, they mostly think I live in central London – Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and all that. I actually live about eleven miles south of central London. The largest London Borough is Bromley, not far from where I was the day of this walk! While Bromley is in Kent, it is also in London! Confused? That’s England for you! Don’t worry about it. Just remember that there is far more to London than No, 10 and Oxford Street!
