I want to do the bit from Erith to Bexley at the weekend. I'm guessing that the first bit through Erith is a bit grim, but does it impreove relatively quickly? I don't really need to walk 8 miles through a post-industrial wasteland tbh.

Well, if you don't find the largest* scrapyard south of the Trent to be romantic and inspiring then you might call it a little grim, yes, but as sustainability is all the rage these days I am sure that you, as a man of enterprise, will also find it an invigorating experience.
Anyway, if you look the other way there's the mighty old river and, yes, the industry is soon left behind and you'll be enjoying the sultry desolation of the Dartford marshes in no time.
* I may have made this up.

There's a good sense of walking out of London, although I think technically you don't leave the borough until you finally cross the Cray. Doubtless you'll enjoy some refreshment in the salubrious surroundings of the Bear & Ragged Staff.I expect you know Hall Place well, but we found the gardens were well worth a look.
I bought some excellent ale at Hall Place just this weekend. From Bexley Brewery had a stall at the farmer's market. The Redhouse Premium ale is excellent, but my favourite is the Black Prince porter #yumThere's a good sense of walking out of London, although I think technically you don't leave the borough until you finally cross the Cray.

Fúcking animals.
There was a pikey wedding at the Priory in Ware the other week. Every pub in town closed.
Remind me again why we tolerate this?
