please empty your brain below

And we enjoyed it too. An excellent idea carried out with your usual panache.
Thankyou.
Given the narrowness of the strip you followed, then 51.4 and 51.6 will give you another chance to please your followers who live south of the river (and those who live north). Something for a rainy at of days, perhaps.

Posted at sunrise (06:03) today on the Eastern edge. See my post of last night for context.
That was an epic walk and set of posts. When I grow up I want to do that too! I was particularly happy to read that the London Motor Museum is closed. It was perhaps my worst experience in London. Yay.
My day either begins or ends on this blog everyday. Either I’m up late enough (GMT-6:00) to read your early morning post or I catch it in the morning when I wake up. The only other thing I do without fail each day is brush my teeth.
A great read, thoroughly enjoyed each step especially both extremities as I doubt I’ll be visiting either very soon. Thanks dg.
Re: The feral cyclists. Around here, some cyclists try to be clever at traffic lights and balance on their pedals. It's most amusing when they splat on the road as they try to set off.
Thank you! I've really enjoyed this series! As I do most of your blog!
Really, really good. Just the sort of thing I (living well outside London) read this blog for. As you say, the route delivered a brilliant mix of the famous, the spectacular, the mundane and the fascinatingly trivial and you captured it with your usual elan.
I've thoroughly enjoyed following along in your virtual footsteps. Some of the places you've visited I know well, others not at all, your descriptions and narration are a joy to read.
Bravo on finishing! A really enjoyable read from start to finish. Wouldn't be surprised to see Iain Sinclair copying this and turning it into a (pretentiously written) book within the year.
Fifty first and one half. Half isn't a measure in it's own right so cannot be "halfth".
Such an excellent set of blogs. I really enjoyed reading the series.

Very well done indeed.
Thanks for an interesting series to read, enjoyed it
I will leave it others to point out to 'B' the dangers of back-firing pedantry.
I vote for halfth.
I think we should name 51.5N 'the Tropic Of Geezer'...
The biggest danger in picking up on "fifty-one-and-a-halfth" is that you should have chipped in the first time I used it, on Day 1 back on 9th August.
As far as I am concerned, this is "normal service"!
Excellent stuff.
Excellent and interesting as usual. One of the things that your articles do is often cover places etc. that aren't so well known and would usually get missed by most people.

I keep promising myself that I'm going to go on some of the walks / visits that you have done and see some of these things myself
It was pretty bloody brilliant. Thank you!
Really enjoyed this series, thank you!

On old tube maps - there's a map in baggage reclaim at London City Airport which shows both the DLR to King George V and the North London Line to North Woolwich.
An excellent series, well-written and well-observed - thank you.
'Tropic Of Geezer'. Seconded.
A fascinating and historic set of posts on the fifty-one and a halfth parallel through Geezerland. Many thanks for all those looks at crannies.
Cheers, thanks.
I've really enjoyed this series of walks along the fifty-one-and-a-halfth parallel … thanks so much.

Well I can only echo other comments. I very much enjoyed these series of posts, thank you for writing them.
As regards Robin van,there were 3 of them.
One is at a film & tv car museum at Carnforth in Cumbria.
The other is owned by Only Fools & Horses uber fan Ricky Hatton, the former boxer turned promoter.
