Left the house at 9 to meet the GF and inlaws at a vineyard in Surrey. After an hour got a call to meet instead at Kew Gardens at 12:30. By this point I was just the other side of Kingston which turned what had been a fairly pacey ride into the country into a time-killing exercise in the stockbroker belt.
Went to Richmond for a coffee.
Went to House of Fraser for a wee.
Did a lap of Richmond Park and did the steep side of the horrible hill for the first time ever on 48:16.
Cycled over Kew Bridge four times for a laugh.
Cycled round Chiswick roundabout twice singing loudly.
Cycled back over Kew Bridge but this time pretended to be a car and patiently waited in traffic.
Heckled some 8-year olds playing a cricket match.
Found an army surplus store by accident and locked up my bike to have a look in but it was closed.
Considered going to the Kew Bridge Steam Museum. Didn't.
[strike]Shot a man in Mortlake, just to watch him die.[/strike]
Total time spent out of house: 8 hours.
Total mileage on bike: 35.
