Why's he spell 'Benn' with two n's? It's not normal, tell him to cut it out, OK?

He's not normal though!

Ahh Benn's second N...

Well for the second part we go...

-> Putney ->

You're going to be going through my borough... you'll like that I bet! ;)

By that point I'll be too exhausted to know what's going on, I'm sure. Laughing out loud

I find it disturbing, people who don't spell their names properly. In one sitcom I wrote a scene containing a bit of dialogue about the main character not trusting a fellow character, who spells her name 'Allison' - two l's, bit weird.

Oh, and anyone who calls themselves 'Benjy' needs a good talking to as well.

That's the plan...

I mean... good luck! >_<

If you're ending-up in Sutton, why not have a celebratory pint at The Old Bank, a pub right next door to Sutton train station (and near where most of the buses stop). It's one of places in Sutton you're less likely to get hit for no reason!

It'll be ridiculous O'clock in the morning! And none of us drink, so. :P

First, the Greyhound,then the Old Bank?

Tim, are you planning on stalking me to every pub I drink in?

(But yes he's right, that's a reasonably safe pub to go to. Although I think you're going to end up down the other end of the high street, I'm guessing, so avoid the Dolphin. The carpet sticks to your feet like spunk in a bath.

I thought you were a student!! Next you'll be telling me you haven't got a Che Guevara poster up on your wall.

Nah. Go off the high street to the Robin Hood.

Looks like we should have a Sutton meet up. Rob? Tim?

Dave?

Dave? Rob?

Although I am in Bristol thesedays, I visit Sutton a lot still as my kids live there. Could be up for a meet one of these days, yeah.

'The Racehorse' and 'The Windsor Castle' are OK too. :)

'The Windsor Castle'

Is that where Windsor Davies lives? Flash bugger.

Quote: PhQnix @ July 14 2009, 2:22 PM BST

This is probably one of the most self indulgent threads this board has ever seen, but oooooh well.

Tomorrow, due to me being a student with too much time on my hands, I am going with my friends to try and go through every London borough. The aim is to walk as much as possible, but it's 80 miles so we will end up getting buses at some point.

This is the first half of the route, as far as I can work out...

Crystal Palace -> Norwood -> Sydenham -> Catford -> Eltham -> Then we head up to Woolwich to cross the Thames, with some loops to hit the boroughs -> Wollwich -> Beckton -> Barking -> Chadwell Heath -> Ilford -> Leytonstone -> Upper Edmonton

I will try and update my otherwise very boring Twitter as well. :P

Why?
Why not get sponsored?
Tell you what I'll sponsor you 20p everytime you get mugged or offered drugs.

Tim!! I'm up for a few laughs and awkward silences with complete strangers. It'll be like internet dating again, differing only in that this time I'll be fervently hoping that it doesn't end in sex.
