Stories of a short, fat bastard.

Hey, remember that trip I did to the UK last year? MORE PHOTOS!

On day 22 I went to Flag Fen to look at bronze age artifacts.

( Photos of artifacts and reconstructions. )

And finally, some photos of Bealieu Abey where Lord Montague lives. The National Motor Museum is on the abbey grounds.

( Photos of an old house. )

A long day! Part 1 - Stonehenge

( Many big photos of some big stones. )

Continuing our walk around London
( Many Photos )

And so on day 8 I took Aaron to see Bletchley Park, and had to explain to him the significance of the place.

The Mansion where the Code Breakers worked.


Actually, this is where the head of the section and his staff worked. The real code breakers worked out of little pre-fab huts on the grounds.

Still at Duxford, more planes, some tanks, and other things.
( Even more planes. )

Hatfield House does not permit photos inside, which sucked. It was very nice and had some impressive paintings. The original house was an Elizabethan palace, most of which was demolished to build the current house. Some of the Old Palace still exists.

I've been told the gardens are impressive as well, but that was an extra cost.
( A few photos. )

From Castle Rising it is a short run to Sandringham where the Queen lives. She wasn't in that day, so they let us peasants in. No photos inside, though.


( More photos of a large house, some gardens, and a few old cars. )

More photos of Framlingham Castle.

( And that's all. )

Forgot to post these photos of owls at the Shuttleworth Raptor Centre

( OWLS! and a falcon )
