Worcester

Yesterday we went to Worcester by foot, bus and train and returned after a long day by train and taxi (I am learning) . We wandered around - there was a festival on, many pedestrian malls, old buildings, people dressed in period costumes, bands etc We visited an old tutor house that had many original rooms and features. There were displays in various rooms showing how the house had been used

The highlight for us was Worcester Cathedral. It was a different design -2 transepts and seemed initially too long and skinny with a very high roof, but it was very impressive. Lots of interesting details all around. Nice cloisters. It was good to be able to appreciate the atmosphere of the space with someone who thought the same.

Very late lunch / early dinner was a simple pub meal in Great Malvern. Noel's beer, ' Village idot', was more successful than my rose
