Overview

Fancy letting your hair down at the Christmas party and having a lie in the morning after?

Me too. Join me for this afternoon walk which goes round the border of the City of London which is protected by 14 dragons. If we survive the dragons we will finish at a pub just outside the city boundaries.

Please note there will be no lunch stop so please eat lunch before the walk.
