Anyone who knows Richmond area do you know...???

[astonished]

Of anything my dp can do with three kids tomorrow indoors, as he has a few hours to kill in that area and the weather forecast is bad??

wish I did, I've got the day off work to go to Legoland

Kew Botanical Gardens? Only a short hop from Richmond. Shorts and t-shirts on for the tropical houses.

I'm supposed to be going friday Fisil but can't make it, hope the sun shines for you

Thanks bad Hair, is it expensive??

Thanks KS , great for my DP he's a big kid anyway!! Is Syon house in Richmond??

there's a smaller and slightly less hellish version of snakes and ladders called hugos in richmond town centre, if you go out of the red lion car park back entrance (on paradise road?) you're there.

Thanks you are a star shall have a look xx

Thanks Sophable x

Kew Gardens is fairly expensive, yes. Definitely don't eat there.
Syon House is lovely - I've not been to Snakes and Ladders but a sunny day out in the gardens with dp and ds1 when he was a baby will always be one of the best days of my life.

Packed lunch it is! Thanks people genuinely, my dp cannot believe the info you can get on mumsnet, he didn't think anyone would reply!!

Hugos no good for older ones though I shouldn't think, is fairly tiny (and yes a lot less hellish!)

~Also at Syon House is a reptile place, a butterfly house, a tropical fish shop (free to look!) and other bits

2 kids aged 5 and a 2 year old, do you think they will like it?

Like the sound of butterfly house etc wish i was going now, been on the website and it looks great

Oh yes Hugos fine for that age

5/6 year old would be ok there cd? how old are yours astonished?

snakes and ladders is massive and huge and like a aircraft hanger sized portion of kidtasticness (i.e. hell on a stick, but they probably will love it)

And probably less expensive too am on a bit of a budget which will please dp

it is truly vile yes

it smells of poo and they shout all the time over loudspeakers

2 and 5 (times 2) Sophable

oh for 2 and 5 deffo hugos by a country mile imho

Is Hugos anywhere near richmond theatre as that is where i shall be?

cd you have blocked me?

cd will tell you where astonished, but definitely accessible to theatre
