There really is a hill in Forest Hill. Here's a piccie I took today of the view of north London. The white semi-circle on the horizon is the Wembley Stadium Arch - 12 miles away!
And this is the Crystal Palace transmitter which is about 2 miles away. It was very sunny after a long period of rain - the wet tarmac almost make the spicture seem black and white.
By contrast, here is the transmitter mast as seen from our local park, Mayow Park (on a nice sunny day!).
If you have any interest in Doctor Who then you really should visit the Dr Who exhibition at Earl's Court. They have a fanstastic collection of props, costumes and monsters from the new series. We went along with Gareth and Jo and their two sons befopre they - sadly - emigrate to Oz!
So, this is of course the Tardis:
Owen met the Face of Boe:
And Dave had a close encounter with a Weeping Angel!
And we said a quick hello to the Dalek creator himself, Davros:
We took Owen for a walk in Joyden's Woods, Kent in his backpack. The wood is officially ancient woodland and is at least 400 years old.
We started off with Owen wide awake:
But by the end the walk had obviously been too exhausting for him!
