5 gathered at Island Gardens and were met by number n=6 at the Cutty Sark and her mother who joined us briefly. We made our way along the Thames and through the parched park , enjoying the views and other points of interest under w=cloudy-and-breezy conditions. Being a Friday, it turned out the Plume of Feathers was serving food until 8.30pm, so we all enjoyed some food or drink in its charming traditional atmosphere. A fun night out!
