I'm here in Richmond, famous for its views of London and the
Thames. Our friends have cancelled the party that we have come down for because
of COVID, but as the hotel we booked is allowed to open, they won’t let us
cancel or amend our stay so we've come to make a weekend of it. I'm also bunged
up with ear wax and I can't get anyone to pump me at the moment. But I've just negotiated
the motorway without causing too much congestion. The only tricky bit was a
roundabout with traffic lights and full lanes. There's a 20mph speed limit
enforced here and everyone seems to be sticking to it. Normally people are
tailgating me, but here I have to remind myself occasionally. We're staying a
fancy boutique hotel which is only a stone’s throw from Richmond Park. The
rooms are very bright and colourful, and looking at the cars in the car park, I
wish I'd hired a sports car for the weekend.
