Just outside London

Meet new people in Waltham Abbey and Cheshunt

Waltham Abbey, Waltham Cross and Cheshunt sit just outside London, inside the M25: Waltham Abbey on the Essex side of the River Lea, Waltham Cross and Cheshunt on the Hertfordshire side. Between them is the Lee Valley Park, with lakes, a country park and the white-water course built for the London 2012 Games.

PingMee works here just as it does in London. Post a status saying what you're up for (a walk in the River Lee Country Park, a coffee in Waltham Abbey's market square, a bike ride along the towpath), see who's around right now, and send them a ping. If they ping back, a private chat opens for the two of you. It's for new friends, relationships and networking, and it's free.
