Out and About

Went out with Dad today. Nothing exciting we went to Bury St Edmunds had a Tea and a Scone and then went to Clare - typical day out with Dad.

I had intended to show you pictures of the cathedral, I left the dSLR in the car and put my little Canon in my pocket. I took a few photos and the batteries ran out!! SOB! The cathedral was once a chapel of the HUGE Abbey, it then became a parish church and then became a Cathedral. Over the last 100-200 years a lot of work has been done.







Then on to Clare. As I have mentioned MANY times before it has plenty of history, there was castle, it has a fine parish church and a ruined priory which is once again a priory.

















Dad's new car!

Pete - your nature photos are always wonderful, but I particularly enjoy the photos you share of churches. Beautiful.

Glad you had a nice day with Dad.

So glad that you and your Dad had a good day. Loved the photos, the stained glass window is magnificent and the wildlife ones are great too. Clare is a lovely place isn't it?
