Comments for The Lea Valley Walk by Leigh Hatts http://www.leavalleywalk.org.uk River Lea - From its source to the Thames Mon, 10 Oct 2011 09:16:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Comment on Introduction by Jane Healy http://www.leavalleywalk.org.uk/comment-page-1/#comment-2079 Jane Healy Mon, 10 Oct 2011 09:16:29 +0000 #comment-2079 Walked sections 3 - 5 on Saturday afternoon and agree the cyclist were a nuisance. I appreciate that they have every right to use the path but very few bother ringing their bells and they often rode two abreast, forcing me off the path. The sign next to the cows in the field said the were British Longhorn, but I think they were Belted Galloways. Maybe someone should update the information.

]]> Comment on Waltham Abbey’s Holy Cross Day procession by Tricia Gurnett, one of organizers of Holy Cross Day http://www.leavalleywalk.org.uk/2011/09/12/waltham-abbeys-holy-cross-day-procession/comment-page-1/#comment-1941 Tricia Gurnett, one of organizers of Holy Cross Day Sun, 25 Sep 2011 13:42:27 +0000 http://www.leavalleywalk.org.uk/?p=459#comment-1941 Thanks for this very nice piece on Holy Cross Day at Waltham Abbey. It was a huge success, with a packed Abbey for the service, a wonderful quarter peal of bells, and the procession was amazing. It would back along the streets from the Abbey. We wanted 66 people, and stopped counting when we got to 70, but there must have been over 400 there. A great day, and it will now become part of the town's annual calendar. So, see you all on Friday 14 September 2012. Thanks for this very nice piece on Holy Cross Day at Waltham Abbey.
