Exit my flat and walk 87 paces to the right and you are confronted with this Southeast view of the Thames.
On a glorious Spring day it is then a 2.5 mins stroll down Richmond Hill Park to the Hollyhock Cafe where a leisurely and somewhat healthy lunch whilst basking in the Spring sunshine ensues.
With 'The Times' spread across the table, a good latte coffee in your hand and your balding head warmed by the early afternoon sun it sure beats sitting at a trading desk berating a sales person for bringing you a customer flow that has just cost you money.
The English love a flowerbed and I have to admit it's the parks that save this City.
