I like walking too, but have to travel out of London to be able to walk anywhere scenic. I have bought a Senior Railcard and try to get out of London for a walk at least once a week, usually to the Essex or Kent coasts.
I hope you keep in touch on this board, you have been one of the more thoughtful and interesting contributors on here. Best wishes for a long and happy retirement, you have earned it. :Very Happy
Some nice walks from Shere, lovely place.

I'm down to 17hrs and 3 days a week, gradually working my way to retirement which I'm considering at xmas when I'll be 68, though I've said it before and yet I carry on but this time I feel I'm finally ready.

I hear you blue, but I have a reasonable work life balance and after more than 50 years working it has become a habit like smoking and drinking neither of which I do and when it becomes a chore or they ask me to go I'll leave.
