2 off the slightly delayed train, who bumped into a n=3 rd walker on Creekside, and together proceeded in w=almost-entirely-dry weather. There was quite some light refraction, although the moon was never seen, the Big City Glare perhaps...
Route finding therefore was not a problem and Thames and Ravensbourne were followed through parks and along residential streets, until we got to Catford just after 8 o'clock.
We were keen on the Bottle Bar & Shop with its delicious flatbread pizze and lovely cocktails and wines in relaxed atmosphere, and eventually left at 9.40 for our various buses and trains.
A lovely evening.
