Isobel Durrant

I'm an award winning London Blue Badge Guide and City of London Guide; walking the not so mean streets of London and beyond is what I do for a living. Exploring the urban environment then going out to the countryside for walks along trails with the Ramblers or friends is what I like best.

I love the way walking connects you to places. you see more when you walk, you hear more, you are more a part of where you walk.

snaffle, snoodle

These fanciful-sounding words have no definitive origin: They probably just sounded right to someone who was sauntering, which is what they both mean. An Oxford English Dictionary (OED) example from 1821 describes someone “soodling up and down the street.” Credits to Mark Peters.
