Very much a Spring day in London, #SlowWays walking with @maryoz.bsky.social Town houses, shops and canals. Hyde Park beginning to blossom in the sunshine.

We've a new legend and route styles that make it easier to see and find great Slow Ways! Have a try here beta.slowways.org

Bexley to Bromley via Sidcup & Chislehurst #SlowWays today. Some wide suburban pavements and some narrow muddy paths. Stayed upright!Quite some variety across SE London.

##FingerpostFriday No spelling abbreviations or short words here.

#SlowWays between Ascot and Ashford via Egham & Staines. Lovely walk including Windsor Great Park and the Thames Path. Unfortunately the Thames Path was blocked at Runnymead but used the diversion provided by @thamespathnt.bsky.social .All good.

Maidenhead. Local, NCN, and WWCT (Sustrans) #FingerpostFriday Three different signs all showing National Cycle Network route 4

Warlingham to Wallington via Kenley and Purley #SlowWays. A green corridor over grass downland. Plus a trig point on the London #LOOP. Rain threatened, but (mostly) stayed away. 3 🐌 's !

Riddlesdown towards Kenley. My view right now. #FingerpostFriday

Very much an area for horses. #SlowWays between Maidenhead and Ascot. A curious route between paddocks and private property.

Crosspaths #FingerpostFriday And snowdrops, just because they're the first I've seen this year.

This weekend's #SlowWays. Winter trees on a Woking, Lightwater, Ascot walk. Stark, but beautiful. Made taller by reflection. Puddles. Look up, look down, Winter walks, don't frown. Also waterproof boots.

Alas, this footpath is temporarily blocked, but a good diversion is in place. #FingerpostFriday

Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42 and post the second sentence. "Thorne's activities, his way of operating, fit quite snugly with my conceit: that the Lea Valley aspires to the condition of the supermarket (wide aisles, every product showcased in its own area, cheap and cheerful)."

Different arches. Yesterday's Ashstead-Banstead-Ewel-Tolworth #SlowWays yesterday. Unexpected sunshine too low to dry out the mud after the rain, but did lift the spirits.

A classic in Banstead #FingerpostFriday

Two short #SlowWays today Streatham to Balham to Clapham Balstr2 &Clabal1. Essentially a lovely stroll through Tooting Bec and Wandsworth Commons.

Good evening. I'm in Essex, in case you couldn't tell... Near Herongate #FingerpostFriday

Love the way these flagstones have weathered showing the original surface. @pavementgeology.bsky.social Close to Shepherds Bush Tube.

Blue day today. #FingerpostFriday Sky, fingerposts and the ice.

#FingerpostFriday as seen in bicycle headlights. Cycling home from work during these shortest days.

This popped up near me. A new #FingerpostFriday for a new walking path. Fingerposts make good adverts as well as waymarkers. www.thames21.org.uk/silk-stream-...

So many wonderful deserved outdoor champions here. Also many not mentioned, next year perhaps. Save this for future inspiration.

Not been able to get out much recently, so... #FingerpostFriday to the Agora, Library, and Windmill

#FingerpostFriday at Guys Hospital

#FingerpostFriday Near Crossness Pumping Station.

As we inch ever closer to politicians no longer being able to plausibly pretend the bridge will reopen to cars, the time may finally soon be here for an honest conversation about more realistic solutions

Discarded? #FingerpostFriday

Part of the answer to this is to get outside and go for a walk. @slowwaysuk.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

#FingerpostFriday Shaw House was my destination.

“I’ve done so many A to B walks that a circular walk from a car seems pointless to me now" David Bocking @bbobillsmothers.bsky.social went on a #SlowWays hike with the brilliant @maryoz.bsky.social and Susan. Read all about it on his Substack!

Dorking to East Horsley #SlowWays yesterday, Easdor2. Beautiful (steep) walk through Surrey countryside.

Pavement parking impacts everyone. This is why we want to see measures that address it so children don’t have to weave between cars and people with visual impairments, who use wheelchairs, or who push prams have freedom to use the pavement.
