SUMMARY:London Open Gardens
DESCRIPTION:London opens it’s often inaccessable and rarely open gardens to the public. Always good fun as we travel from garden to garden using the best form of public transport available (almost a geek’s tour!). Beware\, lots of walking involved too. \nWe will put together a rough itinerary to make best use of our time and try to vary the gardens we visit. There are often oportunites to pick up food from stalls for lunch\, but would advise bringing something to eat with you. There may be an opportunity to stop in London for a meal in the evening. \nIf you want to come you can buy your ticket online for £15.00. If you buy it on the day it is £20.00.  Purchase tickets in advance at http://www.opensquares.org/2018/home/index.php. \nPlease note that NOT all gardens sell tickets\, so the first one we go to may not be selling tickets. Please try and purchase tickets in advance.

SUMMARY:National Gallery Visit
DESCRIPTION:An afternoon visiting the National Gallery in London. Preceeding this\, there is an optional lunchtime swim “with a difference” at UCL pool. A ‘swim with a difference’ simply means that no costumes are worn otherwise it’s a usual full length pool with a proper deep end and some lanes for more serious swimmers\, life guards and rather good cubicle showers\, with a choice of hot or lukewarm water. You still need to bring a towel please. Cost is £10.00\, but if you pay £15.00 you get a card for a ‘free’ entry next time you go.

SUMMARY:Postal Museum Visit
DESCRIPTION:Explore the surprising history of one of the greatest of British inventions\, the post – the beginnings of the earliest social network. Plus ride the underground mail rail and a meal out in London. \nMeet at East Croydon Station main ticket hall at 11:30 -11:40 am on Saturday morning\, ready to go to London Bridge. We aim to catch a train at 11:48 or 11:51. \nFrom London Bridge\, we will walk to the Museum\, stopping for a couple of things to see along the way. The distance is just about 2.5 miles\, and with stops might take a couple of hours. You will probably see these things along the way: \n\n– something that happens in London about 1000 times a year\, which you might never have seen.\n– 4000 daffodils in a square\n– an unusual view of London from a rooftop.\n\nBring your ticket for the Post Museum and Mail Rail ride if you have one: if you don’t\, you can pay on the door for the museum\, though the Mail Rail ride\, which is just one part of the visit\, is fully booked.

SUMMARY:Geeks' Transport Tour of London

You will visit (either from distance or up close) some interesting and rarely visited parts of London such as: \nThe lesser visited borderlands of Croydon – Lower Sydenham\, Ladywell and the truly foreign territory of Lewisham interchange station. \nHistoric and modern Woolwich:  Royal Arsenal Woolwich Riverside – one of London’s “most exciting redevelopment sites” enabled by Crossrail\, the station site of which we will see.  See how the Georgian buildings are being transformed into a new residential quarter of SE London.  Brunch possible in a quaint pub.  \nA short and free cruise on the River Thames in a traditional Woolwich ferry. \nSee how Crossrail is forging a new transport route through Docklands.  \nLike a bird\, peer down at London City Airport. \nTake to the air in the Emirates Air Line (Cable Car) – £3.50 on an Oyster card or suitable discount / £4.00 full fare single…  (Fear of heights could be a challenge.) \nThe Aquatic Centre at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park\, Stratford \nIf we’re lucky a ride on the new Elizabeth Line (Crossrail) rolling stock in service between Liverpool Street and Shenfield in readiness for Crossrail’s initial partial opening in December.  \nRide on a hydrogen powered bus and take in Tower Bridge and some secrets sights south of the river to cross Waterloo Bridge and end at Covent Garden (call in London’s Transport Museum café / shop or retire to a pub).  \nEpilogue – possible passage through the new “Bermondsey dive under” by train on way back to Croydon from the newly enlarged London Bridge.  \nMeet at East Croydon at 10.10am to catch the 10.19am tram to Elmers End or board at Addiscombe / meet at Elmers End at 10.35 etc. \nTickets – you will need a ticket(s) / card (s) that will enable you to travel from Croydon on buses\, the underground\, Docklands Light Railway\, national rail and tram.  The Emirates Air Line (cable car at North Greenwich) is £3.50 / £4.00 extra which you pay by touching in or buying an additional ticket at the facility.  \nRefreshments – there will be a number of cafes with toilets on route and also public spaces where you can eat your own packed lunch / food.  Toilets at a few places.  There will be an opportunity for brunch / morning coffee at Woolwich with toilet stop.   I plan to end the day at a pub in Covent Garden where hot food may be obtained.
