Wow, nice writeup.
The route to the Montague was the same as we did before, through Burgess Park but at the end of the park we kept straight on, Bianca Rd, Haymerle Road (I think), Bird in Bush Rd, then onto Queens Rd somehow (Naylor Rd maybe). hoefla did that bit of navigation.
After the Montague it was Kender St, New Cross Rd, bye bye to hoefla, Ilderton Rd, Rotherhithe New Rd (should've turned right, not left!), Catlin St, Rolls Rd, Mandela Way, Page's Walk, Grange Rd, x Tower Bridge Rd, Bermondsey St, Long Lane, Crosby Row, Newcomen St, right into Guy's Hospital, Kings Head Yard and we were pretty much there at that point.
Only 3 of us left by the time we got to the George: Rowan42, medik and myself. Everyone was looking forward to some nice warm nosh by that point so we didn't hang around long and all headed off home to north London.
I still don't understand how such a relatively short distance can be so tiring though - it's hard work!
I also very much liked your route from the Grenadier to Vauxhall Bridge. It's lovely.
