Don’t forget to look down
I an trying not to forget to look down. In fact very often it is important to look up as well 🙂

Absolutely, Katy – it’s called ‘rubber-necking” 😉 – then we have to be sure we don’t fall down while we’re looking everywhere except where we’re going.

Thank you for the pingback. Those tiles are great, thanks for showing them. Now where’s St. Davids?

Sorry, Mike – it is in Pembrokeshire in west Wales. Because St-David’s is a cathedral, not just a mere church, it means that the village of St-David’s is a ‘city’ – the Queen bestowed city status on the village of 1800 souls in 1995.

I love them – I agree, the work & craftsmanship that went into many old buildings is impressive. They didn’t have quite the distractions we do, did they?

Nor did they have the tools and hydraulics … The book by Ken Follett, Pillars of the Earth, is about the building of these beautiful churches and cathedrals and a master builder might spend his whole life constructing one cathedral. It’s perseverance, determination, a measure of faith … and a way to make a living.
