"I had a party of 19 on last Monday's Bank Holiday walk from Elstree & Borehamwood Station to St Albans which was around 13.5 miles in length and comprised members of at least six different groups - Hampstead and District, Hammersmith, Fulham & Wandsworth, North West London, Croydon, Richmond and North London and South Herts.
The group poised at Elstree station.
The weather was warm with sunshine from late morning and the vegetation was various shades of green with some buttercups to provide a contrast.
The lunch stop was at London Colney where many of the party picnicked beside the River Colne whilst others had a pub lunch in the 'Green Dragon' (below).
Nearby the pub, the Colne River was a safe haven for these swans and their cygnets...
You can get an idea of the size of the party from this photo..
In the afternoon we passed a City of London Coal Post....
That is "Coal Post" by the way. See Here for more info....
The final image shows the party walking down the disused railway track now known as the Alban way... All we needed was a sunset....
