Glastonbury and Frome, Somerset, UK.

Driving down from Lacock, to the south coast, we went through Frome. Frome is a pretty little town with some cool second hand shops, historical sites, interesting street art, and a really good coffee place Moo and Two although I am sure they would prefer to be called a tea shop. So good in fact, I had two coffees!


If a shop is abandoned why not decorate the window?
Seems corny.
I almost see a face here....
These are always so tempting....

I love natures intrusions on our otherwise grey landscape.
After Frome we continued on down the trails to Glastonbury.
We climbed to the top of the Tor. The Glastonbury Tor also has a grisly past. Abbot Richard Whiting was executed here in 1549. Glastonbury Tor is also known as being one of the most spiritual sites in the country. Its pagan beliefs are still very much celebrated. You will notice some of the few remaining hippies of the world here!
Almost there.
Quite a view amongst the hippies, pagans and other day trippers.
some were too tired, others needed love.
The view, I have now figured out what makes the ticking sound and fixed it, I didn't know then.

Konstancin town.

Wow, I just found this in my draft files of the blog. I didn't know I hadn't posted it. From a bike ride near Konstancin about 18 months ago, there are some pretty photos. I haven't really been active on the photography front because of a foot injury and the cold weather. I am sure I will kick into it soon.... ish.

Riding to Konstancin was quite easy, it isn't far from town. But, heading out to Habdzin is less fun, people driving like maniacs on small narrow winding roads. Such is the life where bikes, vegetarianism and renewable energy aren't traditionally Polish... sigh.
