Yes, the date changes from year to year but the importance is in the name: Shrove Tuesday - otherwise know to many as Pancake Day! 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 […]
Hi All, continuing from where we left off at West Drayton, about 8-9 miles. Taking us into Berkshire and to 'nine o'clock' on the imaginary clock-face of the LOOP, this 150 mile route around London following green spaces, rivers, a canal, and occasional suburban streets. This is the most watery part of the LOOP (perhaps in more […]
Another chance to go back to Cryer Arts Centre for their monthly Folk Night 🎸 🪕 🎶, which starts at 7.30pm (doors open upstairs earlier). You can buy a £6 ticket via this page on their website or pay at the door, where I'll be in their restaurant/bar from about 5.30pm. Buses SL7, 157 + […]
Valerie and I had a very enjoyable stay at Port Lympne earlier this year so I thought this would appeal to some other COPSErs - an animal park & safari weekend on the 15 & 16th March 2025. Port Lympne Hotel & Reserve is set against hundreds of acres of stunning “Kentish savannah” overlooking Romney […]

We'll again have a COPSE table at this enjoyable event. Let Ireen know if you'd like her to keep a seat for you.
Because we don't know how all our COPSErs earn their daily bread, a good many of our Members have shared some of their working-life experiences with us. Since 2010, through "Bring Your Work Home With You", we have been entertained and educated and this week we shall gain an insight into the past or present […]
This is the plan Meet at East Croydon station from 9.15am => 9.30am (approx) Thameslink train to Finsbury Park station => train to Alexandra Palace station (where there are loos + a small coffee shop) where my seven mile "up + down" walk will start about 11am via 1) Alexandra Palace (300 ft) 2) Muswell […]
A Tasty Time With a Fishy Result! Firstly, we need some tasters! If you are able to arrive at the hall ready to depart from there by 8pm this Tuesday, happily becoming a "crew member" for cruising some local-ish chippies, please let me know. We have a few volunteer drivers to transport these important tasters […]
