Minimum Labyrinth

Looking forward to reading this. Well done Justin - another winner.

26 Oct 25: By A Long Chalk, a guided walk of Chalk Farm and Primrose Hill, through the lens of ‘pace layers’, Stewart Brand’s model for the ever-interacting layers of civilisation: steam trains and secret vaults, geology and gin, duels and druids, tunnels, taverns and towpaths. minimumlabyrinth.org

Goe no more to Brainford is our ninth London walk. We go westward, to the old town of Brentford: more ancient than London, and on occasion more noisome. Join us for tranquil rivers, art deco wonders, proper pubs, and a poignant history of transience and travel. 8/9 Nov 2025. minimumlabyrinth.org

Excellent vork. This 'viper' sounds like a human viper of vindows. So even if they are wehicular, the viper itself is non-mechanical. This is indeed a rabbit hole

Interesting contender - looks like the wipers are a late addition, but not sure when en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Whe...

Splendid. I'm talking about the Trico-Folberth windscreen wiper factory in Brentford - an American firm on British soil - so I think this distinction is of no small importance. You say tomato, I say tomato, etc.

An important question that @whenisbirths.bsky.social (or others) may be able to answer. Is Genesis's 1974 classic prog rock album, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, the first use of the phrase 'windscreen wiper' in any lyrics, or does anything pre-date this?

Sunday 7 September is now sold out, but there are still spaces available on Saturday 6 September for Doin' The Lambeth Walk (Oi!). This is the final date in 2025 so make sure you book now if you would like to see it. minimumlabyrinth.org

What a poetic time we had on Saturday on the Peter Ackroyd Thames Walk 2025. 28 pilgrims; 14km from Westminster to Rotherhithe; 8 pubs; and 170 million years of riverine history. And thanks to your marvellous generosity, @areamancm.bsky.social and I raised £1,215 for Trees for Cities and CF Trust.

If you ever get a chance to go a walk with @minimumlabyrinth.bsky.social do it me 'ole china! I also danced along on their merry Lambeth Walk (oi!) recently and it was / is the best way to spend an afternoon in London.

Just done the brilliant @minimumlabyrinth.bsky.social guided Lambeth Walk (oi!). What a fantastic way to spend a Sunday afternoon. An interesting innovative and great way to learn a fascinating history. From William Blake to Sapphire and Steel!

Honoured to join the new @minimumlabyrinth.bsky.social tour, Doin’ The Lambeth Walk (Oi) on Saturday. This is a special one, an epic feel and an immersive theatre vibe, with psychogeographic wanderings underpinned by a certain 70s telefantasy show. Amazing performances, fascinating stories, huge fun

Thank you so much to @annecorlett.bsky.social, author of The Space Between the Stars, and The Theatre of Glass and Shadows, for this lovely review of Doin' The Lambeth Walk (Oi!). annecorlett.co.uk/writing-blog...

Stumbling Towards First Light Why has Chile, a country riven by inequality and political conflict, become a global sanctuary for the long science that drives astronomical discovery?

By the early 02030s, a staggering 70 percent of the world’s entire land-based astronomical data gathering capacity is expected to be concentrated in an swath of Chilean desert about the size of Oregon.

I do suddenly have a great yearning to go. It's on the bucket list
