Yesterday, Thursday, we enjoyed another delicious breakfst, this time more leisurely than for the last few days. Delicious pastries, coffee, juice, omlette.
We spent time in the Cathedral, described as Norman Gothic. It was very much what I call a 'working' church, as opposed to a 'museum' church. Intricate stonework, lovely stained glass windows, tall and narrow building.
I have on my job list of pre-travel stuff a reminder to get my watch battery checked. I have always over the past 15 years done this and it has never needed changing. This time I thought 'my watch never stops when I am away, I can't be bothered'. My watch stopped several days ago and yesterday we found a watch selling shop who put a new battery in for me.
We went to the excellent museum . It was a small but very interesting collection arranged in the restored old Bishop's palace opposite the cathedral. There was a definite route to take, starting in paleolithic times and moving through the ages, sometimes using rooms in the museum as part of the exhibit.
Dinner was another excellent meal in a local restaurant. I was pleased that the lady who served us always addressed me in French, despite knowing that my French is very poor and I spoke English. She addressed all the other English speaking tables in English.
