Just to clarify Warren's comments about Kent Narrows, the Red/Green swap
sides when you go through the bridge, so beware to flip it in your mind
when exiting the other side.

Re-right-returning applies no matter which side you enter from, but if
you don't switch sides at the bridge you'll find yourself in thin water
rather quickly.
