Later, it rained

Another shot from the strawberry farm that I posted yesterday. The rain started later in the afternoon, which didn’t come as a surprise: look at those clouds!

Wedding Chamber

According to our guide, this is the very room where Prince Charles and Camilla were married. I assume the chairs were stored elsewhere that day.

Shimmering Curtain

I really don’t do well in groups, which you’ve probably already figured out.

So this may not surprise you. There was a woman in our group in London who got on my very last nerve. She was good, too: she didn’t gradually have that effect on me. It was instant, from the very first time she spoke.

Then, later, on the bus, just after I made this photo, she tapped me on the shoulder to explain how my picture wouldn’t work, that it would only show foggy windows and nothing else. A regular photo critic, she was.

Anyway, it looks like she was right, and I’m being far to harsh about the situation. That shouldn’t surprise you, either.

Poet’s Station

So, who’s this guy? Let’s see what our friend the internet has to say about it.

Sir John Betjeman was responsible for saving the Station and the Chambers from demolition in the 1960’s. In tribute to the famous poet and railway enthusiast an 8.5ft sculpture by Martin Jennings has been designed to celebrate the man and his poetry.

Street Tree

Another view of London, where I try to make up for that cliched picture from yesterday.
