In other news, the Harvey's does seem slightly better in the Two Doves than in the Red Lion. It's such a temperamental #beer and I'm sure it'll swing again. #pubs #Bromley #SouthEastLondon πΊ

I do feel mischievous putting #Bromley and #SouthEastLondon in the same sentence. The locals really don't like it.
N overindulged on Peruvian fish and Atlantic Pale Ale last night, so it's a solo trip for me to #Bromley v Canterbury in the #Kent #Cricket Championship. π #SouthEastLondon

N is showing symptoms too now, so we've cleared the weekend plans for #NonLeague #football and/or #cricket. Looking to 19th August now, which will either be #Kent Cricket League Championship at #Bromley, or a local #FACup tie. #MastodonFC #NicheFootball β½οΈπ

For #TombTuesday, a grave that caught my eye in #Bromley Hill Cemetery (I think - there or London Road ten minutes away. I went to both the same day). Mostly, because why would an Italian who died off Papua New Guinea be buried in #SouthEastLondon? Alas, no answer revealed online, but I did find a picture of him with not one but two beauty queens, which retails for Β£375 from Getty Images. Copyright prevents me attaching, but Google Arturo Mischiati and look in Images, et voilΓ !

In a pub new to us. Crown & Anchor. Hopefully not rhyming slang. #Bromley #pubs #beer #SouthEastLondon πΊ

I took this photo in London Road Cemetery, #Bromley, #SouthEastLondon, for #TombTuesday, purely for his magnificent name. And yet, there's a fair amount online about him, and his wife too. For example:
Birdseye was the overseer of the South Australian Companyβs flocks and herds and he sailed to South Australia in 1836 on the Lady Mary Pelham. On board he had charge of a flock of the companyβs sheep, much to the annoyance of Captain Ross and his crew.

N is a bit heat exhausted after the full day yesterday, so I'm heading out alone to #Bromley Hill Cemetery. N tells me we barely scratched the surface at our last visit. Might also drop by London Road Cemetery a short walk away if there's time. #SouthEastLondon
Arrived early at what is my favourite #Kent #Cricket club clubhouse, Bickley Park, #SouthEastLondon, for the derby against #Bromley π

First v second in the #Kent #Cricket League Championship tomorrow. Thunderstorm better not fucking spoil it. Derby match too. Less than a mile between them. #BickleyPark #Bromley π

A pub we go to in #Bromley does pizza from a company that can't do maths, so N and I split a 12" pizza for Β£10, instead of two 8" pizzas for Β£15. π #SouthEastLondon #PiRSquared

The next three weeks of #Kent #Cricket League Championship fixtures sees a round robin of #SouthEastLondon derby matches between Bickley Park, #Bromley, and #Beckenham. First up is the first two. Looking forward to a pint on the Bickley Park rooftop enclosure next Saturday if the weather is hot. These pictures were taken from there last summer. π

A good day. Saw #Bromley #Cricket Club win comfortably and go top of the #Kent 2nd tier, had some great jerk chicken, rice and peas there, then watched most of the #ScottishCupFinal in the Red Lion and had a fabulous salami pizza. Now on a rammed 208 back home and it's still sunny.
