    Richmond is London - The London Borough of Richmond Upon Thames. It looks like you didnt see the different areas of the Park, just stayed on the West end of it? You should definitely go back in the summer it is so much prettier and also check out the awesome pubs and restaurants!

      @@thefowlyetti2 yep you are sort of right, was quite interesting reading up on shell , as its biggest shareholder is Blackrock a hedgefund company out of the States with a 7.7% stake....quite interesting seeing so many companies own around half a percent in shares ...I know it did move to London to simplify its share offers, plus Shell hadn't paid Tax in this country up to 2017, due to very little investment in the UK, however they will be now paying some tax due to increasing investment in the UK , however its what you'd call a multinational company that has significant investment in the US , so sometimes you ask who does own these companies in a globalised world, much like a ship owned by an Egyptian let's say, but registered in London, so is able to fly the British Merchant Navy flag, but we don't own the ship the Egyptians do, or do they, if the major share holders are Saudis and get most of the profits divvyed up to them...funny old world we live in, probably need to ask a Tory MP for a better explanation as there the ones lining their pockets...lol

    Richmond Park's a lovely place to spend an afternoon (or longer - given the size of the park you can easily spend a whole day there). I generally found the deer to be more towards the eastern side of the park when I visited, but you can see them pretty much anywhere - just have to go searching. Richmond itself is really nice too - used to walk along the Thames from Kingston to Richmond periodically (incidentally I do recommend walking part of the Thames Path if you fancy spending a day doing a walk - plenty of options for breaking it up within Greater London, but basically all of it up to around Oxford can be done on public transport with a little planning)

    Richmond is technically still London, it’s not exactly countryside but is one of the outer suburbs. I used to live there and it’s a long trek on the District line but only 16 minutes by train from Waterloo, but I’m guessing there was a train strike that day? I could hear the parakeets in the background, there are thousands of them in Richmond 😊

    Hi Izzy I was wondering if you had checked out Hannah Ricketts channel. A recent Vlog is around St John’s Wood and there’s even an American food store near there. Also, Emily Meadows, she did her student abroad in Florence, and has completed her Masters in London, and is searching for a job. She can inform you how hard it is to get the flat and a 😢 job
