Kew

was blissful yesterday - I will take out membership, especially as it is only half an hour on the bus from Ealing. Bizarrely, my hay fever was entirely absent in the gardens - I got to see the bamboo garden, palms, the aquatic plant display, and all the other plants you see in passing. As soon as I got back to Ealing, sniffing kicked in, and this morning has been insufferable. Not least for my workmates who have had to deal with my incessant sniffling and rubbing my eyes. I currently look like a dope smoker with conjunctivitis and the flu.
