They want to build a theme park here? Swanscombe peninsula, Britain’s newest protected place | Winter walks
As I set out for the Swanscombe peninsula from Greenhithe station, on the south lender of the Thames in close proximity to Dartford in Kent, on a uninteresting winter day, I explain to myself to be reasonable. I’m heading for Britain’s most recent web site of specific scientific desire (SSSI) but it is not likely to be a wildflower meadow or an ancient woodland.

Winter color brightens up dark days
This week as I was walking back and forth in the pool exercising before my operation, I hope. I had one of the lovely ladies in the pool ask me a question. Seems she has been a fan of my column since she moved back from Florida. She commented about how she longed for the flowers she enjoyed in Florida all year long. Can you imagine that? Flowers all year long. Seriously, in a way I am jealous of flowers fresh from your garden for your table all year that they have in Florida. I like the idea, but there are challenges that come with this concept. One of my…
