London calling pt. 2

At Millwall a friendly passer-by kindly took a photograph for us and made a donation towards the cause. A brief foray to The Valley, home of Charlton Athletic, was followed by yet another trip highlight. Staff at West Ham United's Upton Park generously permitted us pitch side access for another fantastic photo opportunity.

Leyton Orient were up next. Sadly we arrived too early to go pitchside. However a kind lady receptionist obliged us with another group photo. Dagenham and Redbridge were the next port of call, and although there had been some confusion over our exact time of arrival, we were welcomed with great hospitality by staff and their very own mascot - Digger the Dog! Once again we were delighted to be permitted on-field access for some pictures, and gratefully received an autographed ball, donated by the club.

Unfortunately, due to all these fantastic experiences, we are now running about 4 hours late, and have some catching up to do!
