A laaaavely morning in Richmond with Mother Hen. Coffees and our fave pastries in our fave place, then a charity shop browse.

Thennnn a walk in the gardens, then a walk along the river (we got slightly rained on). Back into town to buy a skirt (which actually was a lot less painful an experience than I expected), then past the station and to Kew Gardens (we got rained on some more).

The journey back was slightly complicated and very confusing - a replacement bus that nobody knew about, then a train that may or may not arrive and that may or may not go where we wanted to go.


OH and Mother Hen Herself, after years of being a Lurkin' Gherkin (and of me subtly dropping comments) has blipped! Waheeeyyyy! She'll probably try and come across all mature and sophisticated, but she played 'pubes' in Scrabble the other day.
