Human

Saturday 3rd October - As new members of the National Trust we spent the day at Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal. Its a huge estate, containing the abbey (ruined in the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539 by Henry VIII), water garden, historical buildings, shops and restaurants. In the afternoon we joined one of the many free tours, this one walked us though the abbey layout, workings and history. Fountains Abbey is a fantastic day out, its a beautiful place and there are so many things to do, we'll be back next year.

Friday 30th October - Chantel McGregor is back at the Roman Bath. Again its another excellent gig, and as I become more familiar with the material she covers, so my enjoyment and appreciation increases. After the gig we stand outside and chat for a while, Andy shows his new bike to us. Before we go Chantel and her family leave the Bath, so we share our thanks with them, and amusingly Chantel has a wobbly ride on Andy's bike - she is human after all.
