George,

It's still on, the weather forecast is decent too. No trains on the Bexleyheath line but I guess you'll be taking the Elizabeth line from Woolwich (as will I).

To all,
Recommend water, sun-hat and sun-screen, if current forecast holds (26C and sunny).

Found somewhere to eat lunch, Richard's pub, Waterman's arms. there are a few other choices around Island gardens.

I'll leave it up to you if you bring a Tripod. Low tide is 14:05 and there is foreshore access along the walk.

Apologies but can’t make Sunday, I’am away at Skomer Island with tight schedule and someone could give me some grief if not home Sunday
Sorry again as looking forward so will give feedback on Orford scouting trip

Hi,

For those of you who don't follow us on Facebook, a few pictures from today's outing:

Hope you've all cooled down, it was a bit warm today but hopefully worth it for the images you took.

Really enjoyed the day. Thank you for all the work.
I shall go through all my images soon!

Thanks for organising the photo walk Ian.  I make it that we have covered the north bank of the Thames from Tower Bridge to Island Gardens in 3 walks.

I am just about to check out my photos...

Glad you had a good time. I wish I had come. It was tooooo hot at the car pageant....

Hi,

My comedic shots from the outing on Sunday.



Someone left their lens cap on!


How did the bus get there!


Here's looking at you


Sage words of advice

 The obligatory photo of the Shard

I snapped around 140 photos, a few will get used in competition, so a good outing for me. Good company makes it more enjoyable too.
