    You wouldn't. I was out a couple of weeks ago with a couple of yummy mummies and their charges and we were asked to leave the bar before 7pm!

    Really? I thought babies where supposed to be in bed a good 12 hours, whether they sleep continuously or not.

    Well maybe the girls I was with are just irresponsible lushes. It's quite probable, in fairness.

    ATTENTION LONDON PEEPS

    I'm coming up tomorrow, and as the weather is looking like it's going to be beautiful (sunny and 23 degrees C, apparently), I was thinking of knocking the idea of gallery hopping in Hoxton on the head and spending the day out of doors. Now I'm DEFINITELY doing Greenwich, and am thinking of going from there to Blackheath as well. Not many people have rated it here, but various friends have always told me I'd love it. Is it worth it?

    And looking at a map, I can walk through the park from Greenwich all the way there? It looks like a fair old hike, but I don't mind that if the weather is good.

    Greenwich will always live in my heart. On a sunny day (and if all the construction work that was happening while I was there has actually finished) is absolutely amazing. Greenwich Park is beautiful. I like Blackheath too, but not as much as Greenwich. But yes, lolly, do try and visit. It's all worth it.

    Well I was planning on coming on the DLR when my plan was originally to get there from Hoxton. But if I'm not bothering with that, then I guess whatever is a decent way of getting there from Paddington. I'll have a look at the tfl website now.

    I think you should still do the DLR especially in the nice weather

    Get the Bakerloo line to Baker Street then the Jubilee Line to Canary Wharf and then on the DLR all through Canary Wharf to Cutty Sark - Lovely!

    Blackheath is STUNNING

    although there's not much to do there, so you might just want to fit it in as part of a diversion to your journey. You can just walk through it and then leave again, but it's so nice to walk around. It's a little lost village in the urban jungle of SE London, so it's quite the sight. All the pretty houses and greenery. Much of it got lost in the 50s, too. It's quite magic.

    I've not been to Greenwich for YEARS, but visiting the park was probably one of my favourite childhood memories of London.

    It IS. It's also a shame it's full of CUNTS When I used to get the overground train into work, they were always the VERY WORST in thinking it was their god-given right to push people out of the way.

    Blackhealth might be a nice place for Lolly to stop for lunch, but yes, you can walk the highstreet in 5 minutes flat and other than that the Heath is just that - big open pretty spaces of green

    What a GLORIOUS day

    I didn't get to Blackheath in the end, as I spent so much time just pottering around in Greenwich and Greenwich Park. And I guessed had I made it all the way there, it would have been more complicated to get back from, rather than heading straight back from Cutty Sark.

    The DLR IS amazing, isn't it? I managed to get right at the front as well How wonderful that people unfortunate enough to live in Lewisham get to commute and do that every day.

    I have friends visiting this weekend and Sunday is currently free - I know the weather won't be great but what is there to DO and SEE around Greenwich? And is it worth doing on an average weather day?

    I need specific instructions if possible

    YOU'RE WELCOME LOLS

    (I think you were going to Greenwich anyway but I hope you don't mind if I take full credit for your amazing day)

    show pictures so people can see what an amazing view it is from the middle of the park. Did you go into the Greenwich Meridian building? I think it's only a cafe and the world's smallest museum but still. It was already shut by the time we got up there.

    I remember one time I waited politely for the masses of people to get off the DLR train and then as soon as the last person stepped out the doors shut and the train drove away. I couldn't believe it.
    I didn't think, I just posted
