Travel south east

A full English breakfast in the local cafe set TSH and Diva up for the day. First stop Neme Valley railway where TSH photographed trains and was given a private tour of the workshop. Diva stayed in the cafe with tea.

Peterborough - first visit for both - is a very attractive small cathedral city. Modern shopping centre opening off medieval square but hidden behind old buildings - perfect way to keep shoppers in the old town. Cathedral very attractive - simple like York Minster, except with a painted (?) ceiling. Saw the tomb of Katherine of Aragon.

Leaving the cathedral area, a falcon was seen - interesting for those who are watching the progress of the Sheffield peregrines. Pigeons dispersed rapidly.

Room overlooks stables for race horses.

Packing was less successful than usual and Diva had to do some ironing on arrival!!
