State Visit

Currently on the receiving end of a ‘state visit’ so decided an appropriate place to visit would be Windsor. Lunch was taken in the punningly named ‘Windsor Great Perk’ (geddit?) and then decided to pop and have a nose around the Queen’s home county pad.

The castle is a fascinating place – history, art, weaponry, a dolls house and umpteen sets of crockery all on display. Once again I ended taking a photo for a bunch of tourists, though had to do a take two as the first one didn’t have enough of the castle in it! I often seem to take photos for tourists, or provide them with directions – I’ve either got a friendly face or look like the type of guy who knows lots of trivial directions to tourist spots. Prefer the former; suspect the latter.

At Windsor I love the irony that you are in a magnificent castle containing great works of art, but look out the window and you have stunning views of Heathrow Terminal 5 and Slough…
