... I decided to go for a little paddle.
So I put-in (kayaker-speak for "launch", nothing to do with Russia) at the end of the garden and headed downriver.
Through Teddington Lock, with its pretty "railway station" garden,
along the delightful riverscape at Richmond,
past Kew and Chiswick and Hammersmith and Putney,
under all the bridges to Westminster and beyond.
A coffee and carrot cake at Festival Pier;
and as the sun went down
and the multicoloured lights of London town glittered magically in the water,
I drifted quietly downriver on the ebb to Greenwich.
