Very hot here. An absolutely lovely day with a super trip up the river to Kew. Loved it! Excellent commentary and a wonderful bonus of meeting the Torch being rowed in a mini flotilla in the other direction. Magnificent and emotional actually. Very pleasant couple of hours in Kew then the return journey. Met S at the RAC for dinner and to watch the wonderful opening ceremony for the Olympics.

Lovely meal last night in the magnificent setting of the RAC Club. Beautiful Alvis in the entrance hall. Arrived at the flat at about 3 pm. Super location overlooking the Square and very comfortable apartment. It came as a bit of a surprise that there was no bedding,crockery or cutlery etc!! Quick trip to House of Fraser and Tesco for essentials and to get a set of keys cut.
