Worth visiting!

Full of history...

But a bit quiet now. I was there during a heat wave (“Oh, we never get heat waves…you must’ve brought it with you”), so it was difficult getting around and sleeping at night. It’s easy enough to get to on the train, with lots of charming little towns around it. The shopkeepers and hotel people are very charming, very interested in your comfort. And the biscuits (read: cookies) are marvelous!

Not far from there

I’m just down the road from King’s Lynne, in Norwich. It’s not a famous or renowned place here in the UK, so nice to see it listed. But if you miss our trains and tabloid newspapers you obviously have unconventional tastes! And thanks for the cheer for the comments on Morocco and Western Sahara!
