Lovely London and further afield -  Glastonbury and Ironbridge                            15/9/2010 - 25/9/2010

View of St Pauls from South Bank.




While we were in London for Nicola and Adams wedding we stayed at this fabulous apartment near the Barbican with Judith and Chris.




Selfridges shoe display.





Glastonbury - We left London in a hire car to do a trip around England.  Our first stop was Glastonbury, a town with a beautiful ruined abbey, a Tor, a healing spring and full of  mystics, magic and hippies old and young.  The house next to our Bed and Breakfast has put in an application to make it a witches retreat.


Glastonbury Abbey.


Up on the Tor, drumming and singing a chant about Mother Nature.





Iron Bride Gorge - a very important site in the Industrial Revolution.  Now it's just beautiful, and a favourite spot for us.
Iron Bridge Gorge.   

The wonderful  bridge.


The old iron works.


Tiles at Jackfied tile factory in the Gorge.  We stayed at Calcutts House B&B, close to this fantastic factory.
