Thursday in Essex saw us all up and out sharpish, heading into London for a walking tour of the still-under-construction Olympic Park. It was all very interesting, although we didn't get up close to any of the buildings (the Velodrome in particular would have been interesting) and it wasn't really up the kids' street. We ended up lunching and pottering about on the Greenway, a cycle path and walkway built along the top of what is essentially a huge sewage pipe. It was fitting then, that while we waited for Grandad John to collect the car, Holly and Louis felt the need for an al fresco micturation. You'll need to log in to flickr to see that one though. Back in Saffron Walden, I headed out on yet another offroad bike ride, this time around Hadstock, Bartlow, Ashdon and Radwinter. By the time I got back, the others had gone to Rickling Green, so I had another 7 miles to ride to meet them, which only enhanced the sheer pleasure of the resulting cold beer on a warm evening. Perfect.
