In a world devastated by climate change and social fragmentation, our only hope is to reach out to #ancient and #abandoned powers to save us, hope they can restore what was lost.

"Ah, my sweet princess, you've come to save me!
… what do you mean you're just here to go skinny-dipping in the Roxbourne?? I may look like a plastic amphibian but I'm really ROYALTY! … oh, you're anti-monarchist? Shit."

I thought it was strange seeing horseshoes on so many houses when walking the Roxbourne.
Should I be worried?
… then I realised my camera had stopped working there, 'til I got to the park where the #river flowed freely amid the grass and trees.
Should *they* be worried?

I was planning on taking today easy. Instead I ended up walking a dozen miles of Pyl Brook

Have I ever told you about the time when I was walking down one of the #RiversOfLondon, found the nearest point to the source where I could see water & as I climbed back past the brambles, I read an envelope tucked by a tree:
"HUSBAND/
FATHER/
BEST FRIEND
[Name]"
(1/2)

Have I ever told you about the time I was #walking a #footpath by a #river, as it got narrower & narrower & nettlier – until I was walking a wooden plank under a tube & rail bridge, then looked to one side – and saw a little straw hut there?

Well, now I have.

I stood on #Holborn Viaduct, and dreamed of the River Fleet passing beneath me. Not in water, but in #light and sound. Flowing through the night.

I come across lost/abandoned #keys surprisingly often. But only twice have I seen lost #locks.
One was on the stairs into Old Street #LondonUnderground station, the other in either a long removed train cutting, or a dry tributary of the Burnt Oak Brook. (Or both!)
