Pics from your State Sanctioned Exercise.

I joined the Walk procession this evening through Dover which celebrates migration and diversity and features Little Amal the refugee girl puppet who represents all displaced children and is there to remind people to not forget about displaced children. There was also a puppet show - Eli and the Golem (which is based on the real life testimony of jewish refugees and holocaust survivers). Very moving.

The procession went through town and up to Dover Castle for a light show. I didn't make it that far though. My legs were very tired after a while and I went to eat some nice chips at Castle Street.

Oh awesome. I've been following her journey. I'd love to see her 😍
 
Chainsaw what's this one. is it edible?
Hard to tell from that pic, (would need to see it from the top as well as side on, and a closer look at the gills) and I'm no expert. Looks a bit like a parasol, which are edible, but please don't eat it on account of some random on the internet saying so! There are things which look similar to small parasols that are poisonous (look up dapperlings). I'm very cautious with any I eat, triple check with various sources when identifying, don't rely on one pic/one source/someone who isn't an expert ✌️
 
Really lovely, bright November day up on the Roundshaw Downs with good cloudscapes:

A view looking to the NW across Beddington (with it's bloody incinerator), Mitcham, Wandsworth and all the way across to Wembley in the distance (the eagle-eyed may just be able to pick out the arch?). The hill line in the background is the high ground of Bushey Heath, Stanmore and Elstree.

A view looking directly East across South Croydon (hidden in valley behind the tree line) with Croham Hurst hills in the background.

Those downs were a revelation to me when I discovered them a while back. They stretch for quite away and great views :thumbs:
 
Having lived in Croydon for many years not to mention a few wild parties in the Russell Hill area, it was quite a surprise to really explore them for the first time a few months back.
