We were in Lichfield for my brother-in-law's 70th birthday party, so I
was not able to update the blogs. It was a good family get-together. I
guess it won't be too long before some of us meet for funerals! It will
be some years before there is a round of grandchildren's weddings. For
some of these we may be around, but it is unlikely we'll see them all
get married. Still, this is how it has always been since time began.
Lichfield
is a small city to the north of Birmingham. It has a very nice
cathedral with three spires. Unusually, the cathedral is made in red
sandstone. It has some fine carvings over the entrance. Lichfield itself
is charming with many fine old buildings and a pedestrianised centre.
There are 2 large lakes near the cathedral. I guess at one time these
were stocked with fish for monks nearby?
