Richmond Park is actually one of my old haunts. From certain points, you can get excellent views of the London skyline in the distance, which is particularly spectacular at night (probably even more so since the +10 years that I've been there).

Your shots of Kew Gardens were great too...brought back a lot of memories as I haven't been there since I was a kid.

Cross the bridge and head for Kingston next time - close, but quite a different vibe to Richmond. Just try to avoid Roehampton, because it's a tad dodgy in places.
Thanks very much! I absolutely loved Richmond, it seems like a perfect place to live if cost isn't an issue (which obviously, and as you say, it damn well is! haha). Yeah, I considered going to Richmond Park but instead went in the opposite direction to Kew, which was also for my first time.

I have yet to discover Kingston in daylight despite having been there about four times at night to go to the Oceana club. I will certainly bare that one in mind.

Thanks for the extra pictures, if a little out of season :P

I didn't actually, I've walked by three times but never explored though I noticed they must do some sort of production in the space outside it.

Great pics as usual. Do you have any during these Olympics? London is doing a superb job. Friends tell me the atmosphere is electric, just wonderful and I really wish I was there. Best olympics ever they say. Bravo London, bravo Britain.

Thanks very much! I don't unfortunately have pictures during the Olympics though I would agree, London is hosting them brilliantly after all the cafuffle in the media leading up to the event. Working most days has kept me in Bristol as these were taken during June.
