The fan vaulted cloisters of Gloucester Cathedral look so beautiful and delicate too.
Well done (Chapeau) for managing those miles of cycle with a painful wrist and then playing your cello in the concert.
It is both fascinating and inspiring to read your blog and I’m looking forward to us listening to your concert at Carlisle, your final stop on your pilgrimage.
We saw you at Orton the other year, when you recounted your Highway Cello pilgrimage/adventure.

You look so relaxed in the photo. Maybe you’re just hungry? I’m glad the cyclists were there to cheer you on. And the other people, too. Looks like a very appreciative audience.

Isn’t it amazing how important food is on our journeys from birth to death and all the twists and turns in between? Chicken and Chocolate pudding await me, too! Actually not — but rather lamb and felafel patties and curried couscous and carrot cake. Can’t wait!

I am so glad you admire Norman pillars over Gothic ones – me too. Please remember that most tea rooms close at 4pm. I am having a campaign to try to get them to stay open til at least 5pm but that is time for high tea on the north so staff need to be home by then! Hope to see you in Carlisle having been inspired to do so by your lovely performance in the Quarryman’s Hall in Creetown earlier in the year.

After the hard graft of cycling, I breathe a sigh of relief when a cathedral is expecting you and busies itself to welcome you. Hurray for Gloucester’s welcome! Too many have failed you in this department, and it saddens me that they overlook you.

After your opening paragraph ‘Afterwards there were fat…’ I was sure you were going to say ‘slabs of cake’ rather than commenting on the architecture! . Tea shops do seem to have a tendency to close before ‘tea time’ .

Is that you in the front row seat for your own unfolding of the meditations?
Cheeky start to be sure.
