Capital Ring Phase 4
Not sure what will be the best part of this 15 stage journey, but I am fairly sure that this leg will represent the worst stage.
Leave Victoria and arrive at Crystal Palace. Follow the green signs and it doesn't take me up to the town where there were some expansive views but dips into a housing estate and circumvents and area of interest. Go through Norwood and a couple of recreation grounds. Spot an 8 year old labradoodle and talk to the owner about whether her dog is a) lazy or b) hates her. It would seem that my labradoodle is unique.
There's really not a lot to commend this stretch of the walk. Norwood House is the architectual highlight.

Soon arrive at Streatham. There is a collection of eateries and pubs in the area. Now I know that Mick Jagger has a house in St Lucia, but I cannot believe that he goes to Bandit Country for his pizzas.
He got Sticky Fingers |
I admit, I thought long and hard about Half Inching it. |
Timed it just right for the train back from Stretham Common into Victoria.
Lets hope the next stage is more exciting.
