The Walk Exchange gets a mention in this lovely piece on the ethics of following in Walking Art. Ah for the halcyon days of WSTC 1. We've walked a long way... theguardian.com/cities/2018/…

Fancy going on a #ChipShopWalk? @formerfresnan is organising a version of walkwalkwalk's score this Saturday. So far walkers will be chipping it up in London, Greece and Canada. And Radical Stroud is getting a head start on the walks tonight. Join them and eat all the chips!
