Publisher's Synopsis
This is the story, mostly in pictures, of my walk around the 78 mile Capital Ring in London.The "twice" refers to the fact that, I did the walk twice, once with and once without my camera. The guidebook I used, was 'The Capital Ring ' by ColinSaunders. But, rather than reading the book as I went along, I decided to record each section onto my MiniDisc recorder, using the recording as myguide.Because of my wonderfully random way of organising, some of the photographs have captions, and some do not. They are however groupedtogether in the sections, which are found in the book.Most of the sections of fairly short, -less than 7 miles, but you obviously can cobble some of sections together, if you are that way inclined.A difference from my book on the London Loop, is that I have included two poems.The first concerns, the rules and regulations, that used to adorn the notice boards at the entrance to Highgate Woods; before being removed, presumably by some committee of humourless bureaucrats. The good news is, that as well as the poem, I have a photograph of the noticeboard, before the desicration.The second poem, I wrote about the problems I encountered almost at the end of the walk. Fortunately, at the time, I had luck on my side, otherwise, it might well have been t the end of me. As it was, I escaped with a few scratches and bruises. These were caused by my using practicesnormally reserved for the mountains, rather than on wire mesh fencesSome readers may notice, that a few of my photographs appear in both books of my 'Twice Around The Town' series. The reason for this, hasprobably something to do with Quantum Mechanics(If you do not understsand Quantum Mechanics...... do not worry, neither does anyone else )
