Richmond Upon Thames, Surrey

Review of Richmond Upon Thames by NINA on November 8th, 2007
Welcome to London's most attractive borough, which for hundreds of years has been a favourite retreat of Royalty, the rich and the famous. The River Thames runs through the heart of the borough for 21 miles linking Hampton Court Palace, Richmond town centre and Kew Gardens with central London. With beautiful Royal parks and historic houses, theatres, museums and galleries rich with exhibits and town centres bursting with shops and restaurants, Richmond upon Thames rivals anywhere in London.

About a month before he died, my grandfather, we covered his back full of lard – after that he went downhill very quickly - Milton Jones
