Much of the day had been foul and this meant by the time the rain cleared up it was not worth Charmaine travelling with me to visit the shops as had been originally intended as we wouldn't have arrived with worthwhile shopping time. The evening started at 1804 with a tram to Wimbledon. After changing to a District line train to Putney Bridge I arrived at the start point of the No 85 at 1847.

The trip was quite brisk up Putney High Street to Putney Heath and the bus then turned right towards Roehampton where we arrived about 1910 at the end of Roehampton Lane where it met the Kingston Bypass.
The bus ran down the Bypass dropping into the Roehampton Lane ASDA and then beared right and climbed Kingston Hill before dropping down the opposite side past Kingston Hospital.

The only hold up occurred as we reached Tiffin school as the road works in Kingston Town centre caused a hold up which delayed the bus at least ten minutes. We finally reached Hall Road at 1937 where I disembarked and walked to Kingston railway station. Here I caught the 2004 train to Wimbledon from where I took the tram home.
