BUILDINGS PLANTLIKE GREW... A WALK AROUND SE1

Friday 11 September

Meet 6.30pm outside Kennington Underground Station; RSVP to editors@differentskies.net.

Over the past few months Different Skies writers collective and publication has been haunting the streets of SE1 and surrounds - from Vauxhall, to Kennington, to Elephant & Castle - documenting in photographs and poems a trail of demolition, displacement, and precarious alternatives to London's housing crisis. The project, supported by The Poetry School, culminates in a series of postcards to be released shortly. To celebrate, Different Skies is hosting a sunset walking tour with poets, community activists, historians, bloggers and musicians. We'll be visiting Different Skies' former HQ, Erlang House at St George's Circus, the ruins of the Heygate Estate, and the beautiful community gardens of Bonnington Square. A roaming discussion featuring presentations and readings from: John Boughton, author Municipal Dreams blog, James Hatts, editor of SE1website, Mary van der Water from Save Knight's Walk campaign, Silvia Rothlisberger from Latin Elephant and Richard Reynolds, aka the Guerilla Gardener.

National cycle to work day: how was your commute? | Environment | The Guardian

National cycle to work day: how was your commute? | Environment | The Guardian

Britain’s national cycle to work day is upon us once again ... From a blessedly quick pootle through leafy north London squares, I now ‘enjoy’ the grim climb up through Streatham followed by the whoosh down Brixton Hill, before briefly running along Cycle Superhighway 5 through Kennington,
which has seen improvements including genuine - if brief and slightly
confusing - segregation for cyclists ... 

Music at St Peter's Vauxhall : Friday, October 16th 7.30 pm The Fieri Consort presents Out of the Shadows: choral reflections on darkness and light Including works by Byrd, Lassus, Gessualdo, and Macmillan

The transition from darkness to light takes us on a musical journey from the intense expressions of the murderous composer Prince Carlo Gesualdo, the tortuous chromaticism of Lassus’ Sybelline Prophesies to the searingly beautiful harmonies of 21st cenbtury composer James Macmillan and the radiant compositions of William Byrd.

Carlo Gesualdo: Peccantem me Quotide
A. Davidson: Idumea

If you do one thing this week … play barefoot bowls | Life and style | The Guardian

Leave your white trousers (and shoes) at home – this genteel English sport is getting a laid-back makeover ... Baranis, a cocktail bar in central London, has a free indoor court; L’Entrepot, a restaurant in Dalston, east London, has a temporary basement pitch; Hay’s Galleria, an arcade on the Southbank, has a permanent covered pitch; and there are pubs offering outdoor boules, such as the Prince of Wales in Kennington, south London ... ....
