Our volunteers have worked with Croydon Council to get some new signage installed / replaced / fixed on Section 4 of the #LondonLoop - and to add waymark discs to new posts from our stocks.

Great to see these newly installed posts and signs in place making the route easier for everyone to follow.

A wise philosopher* said "The way I see it, if you want the #rainbow, you gotta put up with the #rain!" And on this #walktober wander through many woods just outside the M25 yesterday with @metwalkers.bsky.social we were graced with both (and much more beauty I'll share later)

Five people wearing bright coats and rucksacks are walking up a road with light rain falling around them. There are trees on either side. A double-rainbow is visible in a cloudy sky above several farm buildings and a marquee A double-rainbow is visible in a cloudy sky above a red brick and roofed house, seen behind a wall with a black gate. A rainbow is visible in a cloudy sky. Below there are trees and hedges, and a single person walking down a road.

"Table for one. And I want the gingerbread starters…"
"Please sir, can I have some more linseed oil?"

#Halloween is starting to get creepy already, seen on a very snaking @metwalkers.bsky.social saunter through #Fitzrovia where we were led past 50 bars, but only entered one.

A manikin of a witch is sat at an outside table at a restuarant, holding a wine glass. A small wooden sculpture of a boy wearing antiquated clothing is seen inside an empty shop, it has a sign saying "Venue space available" hanging from its hands. There is a reflection of the building opposite visible around it.
