SUMMARY:Green Chain Walk
DESCRIPTION:Meet at West Croydon station by 9.40 for the 9.48 Overground train to Penge West arr 9.58\, calling at Norwood Junction 9.53. You can also get there by 197 bus (alight Penge W. station.) \nFollow the Green Chain Walk via Beckenham Place Park to Mottingham. About 8 miles\, but could be shortened. \nThe Green Chain Walk is a network of walks in S.E. London linking up green spaces. \nWe are going to walk the stage from the edge of Crystal Palace Park to Grove Park. \nIt is an easy fairly level walk through parks and streets. It could be a bit muddy in places. So don’t wear your best shoes! \nAlso it is quite cold for easy urban walking\, so wear warm clothes!. About 7.5 miles with possibilities of leaving the walk early. \nYou can bring a packed lunch but there will be a cafe stop at Beckenham Place Park. \nReturn from Grove Park by train via London (for those with free travel!) or Bromley North. By bus 261 to Bromley then 119 to Croydon. \nBarry

SUMMARY:Croydon Urban Mystery Walk
DESCRIPTION:A Little\, Local Journey of Discovery\nStart time:\n12pm (Noon) \nMeeting Place:\nOutside 109A Church Street\, “The Kenkey House” (near “Reeves Corner”) \nhttps://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/109A+Church+St\,+Croydon+CR0+1RN/@51.3736037\,-0.1043933\,18z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x4876073a0777ce25:0x8d26f66448d2a4ae!8m2!3d51.3736707!4d-0.1051872 \n(What3Words location:https://w3w.co/gently.cotton.rope ) \nTo Bring:\nAny food or drink you can consume as we wend our way along our route. No refreshment stops are included in the afternoon. \nTo Wear:\nFingers are crossed for dry weather but please do come clad to keep warm and prepared for any rain forecast nearer the day.\nComfy town footwear should be fine – but not your Sunday best because there will be a couple of leaf-strewn paths that might be a little mucky. \nThe route:\nWill take about three hours at an easy speed\, allowing for observations and comments.\nDistance is about six miles.\nIt will end just into South Croydon.\nWe should be finishing before dusk so there will be no walking on any unlit roads. \nSome specific streets and landmarks will be included. Hopefully\, some interesting information can be gleaned about places we too often just hurry and scurry past. \nIf you are able to enlighten us with your additional knowledge as we go around\, that will be to the benefit of all! \nLooking forward to you all joining me.\nPlease contact me with any queries or if there is any delay in you reaching us on the day. \nMany thanks\,\nIreen (07968 035522)

SUMMARY:Burns Night
DESCRIPTION:The Programme:\n\nPlease note we’ll be taking £3 at the door to cover costs for this evening – a bargain any Scotsman would be proud to claim! \nFair fa’ your honest\, sonsie face\nWe didn’t argue with that sentiment last year (or the year before)\, and everyone had such a good time that we’re doing it again. \nIf you have yet to be convinced of haggis’s virtues (or even if you have been)\, roll up on Tuesday evening for a treat of said puddin’\, with its traditional embellishments of bashed neeps\, mashed spuds\, and whatever trimmings we can muster. There will even be a dram in it for those keen on the true Caledonian experience\, along with the joyful skirl provided by our in-house piper and traditional poetry read in excruciatingly inaccurate Scottish accents. \nPlease note that\, due to government restrictions\, we will be using only left-handed specimens\, humanely caught by burly\, kilted highlanders using extra strong butterfly nets. \nBut\n(I hear you ask) \nwhat’s my part in all this magnificence?\nWell\, there are a few things you should be aware of . . . . \n1. In the interests of simplicity and getting home before dawn\, we’re not washing up! Bring your own plate\, glass and cutlery\, and take them home at the end of the evening. \n2. Drink provided is limited to Scotch and Highland Water for the toasts – in addition\, of course\, to the regular tea & coffee service graciously provided by Olga William. If your tastes veer in other directions\, please feel free to bring your own choice of tipple. \n3. For the furtherance of jollity and the spirit of the evening\, any vaguely Scottish apparel is encouraged. If you can’t stretch to a kilt\, how about tartan socks or a Hamilton Accies away strip? \nAnd a special request: if you’re coming along and you’re of a vegetarian persuasion\, please let Ken know quickly so that your needs can be accommodated. \nLooking forward to that haggis already. No\, don’t ask me what’s in it! \n(I know\, all shamelessly pasted in from last year’s web page pasted in from the previous year’s email. Life’s still too short . . . )

SUMMARY:London Loop walk: Hamsey Green to Oaks Park
DESCRIPTION:We will be continuing the London LOOP\, picking up from where we left off (last March!!) at Hamsey Green\, and probably get as far as Oaks Park (8 and a half miles). But wherever we stop there are buses back into Croydon. \nJust to remind\, the LOOP is the London Outer Orbital Path which goes around London through the greener parts\, parks\, commons\, etc. and occasional delights of suburbia\, and is around 150 miles in all! \nThe terrain is gently undulating\, with some mud – some places of refreshment en route\, you can leave at Kenley\, Coulsdon\, Clockhouse\, Oaks Park. \nTime and place. Meet up at the bus stop outside Fairfield Halls by 10am\, and we’ll take the first 403 bus to Hamsey Green.

SUMMARY:Builders Arms Quiz

SUMMARY:continuing with the London LOOP . . .
DESCRIPTION:Continue from Coulsdon around to Oaks Park\, onward to cross the ‘mad mile’ at Banstead Downs\, and then towards Nonsuch Park & site of Nonsuch Palace\, and possibly as far as Ewell. Potentially as much as 8 miles or so\, with some mud and some suburban pavements. Refreshment possibilities in Coulsdon\, Clockhouse\, Oaks Park\, Nonsuch Park\, and perhaps other unexpected places. A chance to leave at Clockhouse (bus)\, Oaks Park (166 bus)\, Banstead (train)\, Ewell East & Cheam (train and bus) and in the possibly unlikely event we get as far as Ewell village it’s the train from Ewell West back to East Croydon\, via Clapham Junction. \nMeet in Coulsdon (get there by many buses from Croydon) outside the Pembroke pub (which opens at 10am so one could have something there first) by 10.35am to set off at 10.45am. (The Pembroke pub (a Wetherspoon-like place) is in central Coulsdon\, just near the start of where the Chipstead Valley Road branches off from Brighton Road and is near a Tesco-Express – we finished by going in there last Sunday.) \nAdventures in store no doubt…as we found last Sunday and other times\, one can never be sure what’s gonna happen while walking the LOOP\, it’s almost enough to send you loopy! \n  \nPaul Newbold\, 07968 223589 \n

SUMMARY:Sunday Walk with Pepys - Stroll 2*
DESCRIPTION:We all enjoyed the Pepys Walk on 10th December\, so here’s the second instalment.\nWhere?\nThis Sunday\, join me for a stroll through some familiar parts of London with a historical context. We’re going to follow the 17th Century footsteps of Samuel Pepys\, this time around the streets of the City of London. Again I’ll be your amateur guide\, book in hand\, pointing out the connections to Pepys on the way. No doubt other COPSErs will chip in with their own observations! \nThis will be an easy 2-3 hour walk along pavements (boots not required) for about 4 miles\, ending with an optional beer or two at a historic tavern that also serves food. \nWho was Pepys?\n \nA man who lived through the upheavals of the Civil War\, the execution of Charles I\, the reign of Cromwell and the subsequent restoration of the Monarchy with Charles II. Most significantly for us\, from 1660 to 1669 he wrote a daily diary describing events high and low. He was a man on the rise with connections to politics and royalty\, but determined to enjoy life with visits to taverns and theatres\, domestic life with his French wife\, and furtive dalliances with a variety of disreputable ladies. \nGetting there\nI’ll be catching the 12.03 East Croydon Platform 2 to Blackfriars\, exiting on the North side\, where the walk starts \nJoining opportunities: \n\n\n\n\n\nEast Croydon station from 11.50\n\n\nhttps://w3w.co/dock.jars.folds\n\n\n\n\nOutside Blackfrairs Underground  station from our scheduled arrival time about 12.30\n\n\nhttps://w3w.co/crazy.ripe.good\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCall me (number below) if any difficulty joining up. \nThe return trip will be at your leisure – there are good services to East Croydon from Blackfriars\, or you could catch a bus or tube back to Victoria. \nLinks\nPepys’s diary for this day 363 years ago: https://www.pepysdiary.com/ \nGeneral info on Pepys: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Pepys \nContact\nKen on 07921 258876 \n*I know\, this was originally advertised as a Country Walk. Humble apologies. \n\nWhat3Words\nExplanation is here. You can use the links to find any 3-metre square on earth. For best results\, download the App.

SUMMARY:Pancakes (Shrove Tuesday)
DESCRIPTION:The time for tossing and turning has come around again – no\, not a reference to restless sleep but a reminder that the COPSE Pancake Night will be this week!  A flipping good time can be had. 😁 \nPackets of batter mix with  “just add milk” (or even just water?) are available in many supermarkets for those COPSErs who wish to keep things simple\, although others might like to make their own from scratch\, of course.  Whichever you prefer\, please provide your own batter and accompanying filling ingredients. \nAlso\, we do need to have some extra cooking appliances\, if possible\, so please bring any camping stoves or portable electric hobs you may own\, along with frypans\, spatulas\, plates and cutlery.  (As with our recent Burns Night feast\, clearing away is so aided if COPSErs can pop their own used items into a bag to take back home for cleaning.) \nDuring the evening\, indulge yourselves with self-made food – and become creative by experimenting.  Try the challenge of concocting unusual toppings / fillings and perhaps tempt other brave people to try your results!  Below are some of both savoury and sweet efforts from past years.  (The idea is to not have tried out your thoughts in advance!) \nSavoury\nMushrooms with garlic\, onions\, mixed herbs and cream \nGrated mature Cheddar cheese with optional pickle \nBlue cheese (“upmanship”!) with sun-dried tomatoes \nSardines \nMexican chilli beef \nSweet\nMaltesers \nNutella chocolate spread \nChristmas pudding with crème fraîche (over ten months to replace the pud!) \nLemon curd sprinkled with ground ginger \nA slight spread of butter\, drizzled over by various flavoured coffee syrups \n… and\, of course\, the traditional fresh lemon juice and sugar! \nAs well as devouring our pancakes\, we may once more have a tossing contest for anyone who wishes to take part.  (Appropriate photo of Tim wheeled out again.) \n \nCome to beat and eat\, chew and chat.  Shrove Tuesday usually proves to be a pleasantly sociable Club Night. \n  \nRegards\, \nIreen Best (07968 035522)

SUMMARY:Walk in Epping Forest
DESCRIPTION:Epping Forest is a large wooded area in NE London\, with plenty of fairly easy walking. \nSo meet at E. Croydon station at 9.20 for the 9.33 train to London Bridge. Then by 149 bus to Liverpool Street station for the Overground to Chingford. (Zone 5) \nFrom there it is a short walk to the ancient Queen Elizabeth Hunting Lodge\, visitor centre and cafe. Then it will be about a 7 mile circular walk via High Beech (another visitor centre\, cafe\, pub) back to Chingford. \nIt could be quite muddy in places\, so boots may be best. Also bring your own lunch if you don’t want to rely on the cafes etc. \nHope to see you there\, \nBarry \n–

SUMMARY:Advance Decisions and Lasting Powers of Attorney
DESCRIPTION:Talk: Advance Decisions and Lasting Powers of Attorney for health and welfare\, by Delia Barton\nHaving set up a Power of Attorney for my ageing sister\, I was shocked to hear that my younger sister was setting up one for herself. \n“What?”\, I thought\, “that’s only for old people\, not us youngsters!” \nLet me tell you\, some of us are past teenage and it’s time to think about what happens if you suddenly aren’t in a position to make decisions for yourself. \nFortunately\, this coming Tuesday we’ll be joined by Delia Barton\, who will educate us all on the whys and wherefores of Living Wills\, Lasting Powers of Attorney and no doubt much more. \nCome along and hear something that just might have a big impact on your life! \nKen

SUMMARY:Geeks' Transport Tour
DESCRIPTION:Here is some information about next Saturday’s Geeks’ Transport Tour (of part of London) 2024.  This is a day for riding and observing London’s very new and established transport infrastructure with a bit of sight seeing on the way.  This year I have some new features on the London’s transport network for you to experience and a glimpse at the bright new future of high speed rail.   We will be going West and North West. \nMeet in East Croydon station main ticket hall at 10.15am on Sat 24 February.  \nIf you are already “rail side” go to platform 1.   I plan to catch the 10.28 train to Victoria (but alighting at Clapham Junction). \nWe will venture as far as zone 5 on the other side of London using National Rail\, London Overground\, London Underground\, TfL buses including Superloop plus shanks’s pony – in other words WALKING.   Say\, up to a mile in one go and lesser distances here and there\, almost entirely on “made” footpaths but there’s an optional short stretch of unmade / leaf mouldy / bit of mud path.  So decent walking footwear is good. \nAn oyster card or contactless payment card will be the ideal “ticket to ride”.   Just as a London freedom pass or such like is ideal for those that have them.  A reminder that TfL caps your daily fare so  you don’t pay than you should. \nOut tour will take in the biggest single construction site in London (for HS2 “terminus” at Old Oak Common); a land mark church on a hill (optional); coffee break; lunch break; some television heritage; a reservoir; more than one new / up and coming “quarters”; a new Superloop bus service; passing unusual religious buildings and numerous trains and stations.  Oh and a brand new mainline railway station.  Blimey that sounds vaguely interesting.  But it is “geeky”.  Nevertheless participants of tours in recent years have spoken highly of them! \nBring a curious outlook and a bit of patience. \n  \nAndrew Thynne \n07985 936953

SUMMARY:Cycling the Great Divide with Sally & Tim
DESCRIPTION:It’s hard to believe it was as long ago as September 2021 that COPSE Honorary Members Sally and Tim astonished us with their story and photos of cycling the peaks of Patagonia. In a long overdue return they’re going to regale us with their adventures cycling the Great Divide. \n \n“What’s that?”\, you ask.\nThe Divide in question is the Continental Divide – this red line from the Rockies to Mexico. Apparently\, rivers to the left of it flow into the Pacific\, while those to the right flow into the Atlantic / Gulf of Mexico. \nIt’s an established cycling route of over 3000 miles\, “the longest off-pavement route in the world” – did they really travel that far? Turn up and find out. From what we learned last time\, this will be a display of amazing photos to illustrate some hair-raising tales of life on the road.

SUMMARY:Brutalist Architecture Walk
DESCRIPTION:An afternoon walk finishing with an option for an early evening pizza near Norwood Junction station. \nMeet at East Croydon station at 2pm. \nThe title of the walk\, as put forward to the Copse November planning meeting\, is “The brutalist architecture of Croydon and South Norwood”. I got the idea from an event at Bookseller Crow entitled “Concretopia: a brutal decade” a talk by Croydon author John Grinrod which was attended by Val\, Alan and myself. This was supplemented by the “Little Manhattan” audio tour supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and more recently by Elain Harwood’s “Brutalist Britain” which includes buildings in Croydon and South Norwood. \nMost of the buildings we will visit will be in central Croydon so we will leave from outside East Croydon station at 2pm. If anyone is running late (hopefully not!) my number is 07931 533785. Due to weekend engineering works we will later take one of the several buses that run between Croydon and South Norwood to see the last few buildings on my tour there. I plan to end the tour at the Shelverdine Goathouse pub (7-8 High Street\, South Norwood SE25 6EP) for drinks and then to order in takeaways to the pub (they don’t charge for this) from local eateries of your choice eg pizza\, Chinese\, Thai should wish to stay for something to eat. \nFOR THOSE WISHING TO STAY FOR OR JUST COME TO THE GOATHOUSE PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP SO I CAN ENSURE WE HAVE SUFFICIENT SEATING  \nThank you and I look forward to seeing you on Saturday \nJulie \n

DESCRIPTION:We’ll be aiming to take the 9.01am direct train from East Croydon which is due to arrive 10.41am at Cambridge.  Meet at East Croydon station from 8.30am. \nWe have a guide for the day\, so we’ll all have a much closer look at some of the famous colleges\, “the backs” and the river cam but feel free to go off on your own if you want to. There is a lunch stop at ‘The Granta pub’ on the river Cam.  If time allows we will also go to a famous ‘back street’ pub for drinks before heading back to Cambridge station at about 7pm for a direct train back to East Croydon. \n \n

SUMMARY:Countryside Walk - 7ish miles
DESCRIPTION:Here are details of my countryside walk on Sunday 10 March 2024.  Approx 7 miles (ok maybe 8).  An early (for some) start: \n\nMeet at East Croydon train station ticket hall at 9.15am.  (This will delight Barry.) \n\nWe catch the 9.31am train to Chipstead.   We return later in the day from somewhere further down that line\, sorry not sure which station yet\, so if you don’t want to use Oyster / contactless\, suggest buy a return to Tattenham Corner.   Or if you prefer\, buy a return to Chipstead and a single for the rest at the relevant station later.   (The whole line is in Oyster zone 6.) \n\nWe will walk via the outstanding landscape around Chipstead\, Mugswell\, Colley Hill\, Walton Heath etc.   Do bring some packed refreshments and drink with you as there is no planned indoor lunch stop.  However I will try to include a café and or the Sportsman pub at Mogador – but doubtful there will be room or time to sit and have a proper meal.   We will likely reach our destination and return station around 3.30pm where there may be an opportunity for a more leisurely pub stop.  But don’t bank on it. \n\nSorry if details are a bit sketchy\, left it a bit late to check and my first choice has been thwarted by a rail replacement bus between Purley and Redhill.   That does not impact Tattenham Corner line. \n\nWear boots or wellies in expectation of mud. \n\nRegards \nAndrew \n07985 936953

DESCRIPTION:Advance Notice – land of opportunity for your photos!\nAll \nNext Tuesday Club Night (26th March)\, one element of the evening is the Caption Competition\, where you apply your considerable wits to some problematic pictures. \n \nBack in the days when this traditional diversion started\, we took the occasional snap with a box brownie\, only weeks later paying through the nose to get the pathetic results from the Chemist – usually stickered with “Out of Focus” or “Under Exposed” – and we relied on outtakes from Viewpoint for the source material. \nIn contrast\, in the high-tech Utopia we now inhabit we have the opportunity to upgrade our experience using the plethora of photos from COPSE activities of all flavours lurking undiscovered on people’s phones and other digitisers\, just begging to be dragged into the light of day for our amusement. \nSo my request to you is: please email me any such pictures asap so we can include them in next week’s entertainment.   \nThanks in advance \n  \nKen ken@brogan.co.uk
