West Peckham

Old Village-ness:
For father's day (which was a while ago now) my dad got a pub walk book thingy. Now this is useful for two things...One: It gets my mum and dad out of the house and gives them some exercise. Two: The pub means that after loosing calories they shall put them back on again after having a big pub lunch and some drinks. What a great idea 'ay?
So anyway we decided to go on one of the walks in Kent, as although being from Kent we havn't seen too many of the places in the county. The walk we chose was one in a small wee lil village called West Peckham, near Sevenoaks.
For anyone who does not know what a typical English village may look like then this is it. At the centre of the village is a green surrounded by trees where cricket is played. Then next to the green is an ancient churh and the traditional pub :)
After lunch we kind of gave up on the whole walk thing, as there was a village fate with classic cars, birds of prey, brass band, the traditional womens insitute of homemade cakes and the compulsory throw a wet object at tony blair or gerge bush stand.
Then on our way home we bought some cheeries from a tiny little hut at the side of the road which were yummy...i dont think you can get much more Kentish than that!
