Out and about

I took the old boy to Bury St Edmunds. A wander around the shops and a Tea and Scone in the cathedral refrectory. Oh I live don't I.

One day I'll wander into the cathedral and the other fine parish church which is its neigbour.

Just for OC I did take my little compact. The Abbey gardens are nicely kept.




I was attracted to an unusual bit of birdsong in the gardens. Well I say unusual I wasn't expecting a male Blackcap in January. Actually lots of birdsong and there was a goldcrest about as well.

Birding tomorrow. Sorry, camera at home.

Beautiful pictures. The cathedral looks gorgeous in the first picture. It's January and the grass is so green there...sob!

I've got a silly question.

Hubby and I watched the show "Crisis at the Castle" on PBS last week about an elderly couple struggling to hold on to an old---I don't know what you'd call it---historical mansion (?) they bought in the early 60's.

The wife made a weird museum of sorts out of things she'd collected over the years and did tours.

Apparently most of her custom came from "W.I." ladies.

What the heck is that? LOL

Thanks!

Oo, lovely pics! I haven't been there for about four years, I must go again soon.

We went out and about too today; we saw many Red Kite and quite a few Kestrel, one of which swooped straight across the windscreen - fabulous.
