Woke up it was a Chelsea morning

and the first thing that I heard. Was a song outside my window, and the traffic wrote the words...*

Today is the last day of my three month contract just north of Slough. My commute consists of a five mile cycle to Paddington and a two mile cycle at the other end. A frequent comment I get is "Isn't it dangerous cycling in London?". To which my answer is "Not if you cycle sensibly. And choose your route," My route takes me along the Thames path, over Battersea bridge, through some quiet residential streets in Chelsea and then through Hyde Park.

Cycling up Launceston Place I was thinking what "des res" the houses were so I looked them up on www.ourproperty.co.uk. It would appears that the last house in the street to change hands was in 2007 and went for a 'mere' 4.41 million. So not suitable for a first time buyer then!
