Blog Break And Pics

Wigmore Castle, Herefordshire, which belonged to Roger Mortimer.
 I'm off on my holidays again, so won't be able to update the blog for a while - in the meantime, there are hundreds of old posts to read, linked in the sidebar.  :-)  See you soon!

    Have a great time! I still get a chuckle out of Hugh's fire extinguisher--how nice of the abbey to provide for his fire-fighting needs throughout eternity.
