20th November 2010

Whilst Mr W was running the Bakerloo line this morning, I headed out early to try and find some more geocaches to help us reach our goal of 400 by tomorrow. My jaunt took me to Downe where Charles Darwin lived for many years and although he is buried in Westminster Abbey there is a sundial and plaque on the side of St Mary's Church in Downe. I've run past the church many times but never taken the time to stop and look at this memorial to the great naturalist.

One good thing about changing your work location is that there are new things to discover in the local area. Today whilst getting some air at lunchtime I found this memorial outside All Hallows Church by the Tower of London commemorating the siege of Malta during World War II.
