    Woo, did I ever tell you I painted that castle in three different paintings as a teenager? A friend of mine used to live in Rochester (?) and gave me a picture, I was spell bound, just felt like that castle was calling me somehow. I think I gave away all the paintings, except perhaps one. Must go and dig in the cellar of my old place.

    Woo, such a nice day. Elderly friends are so precious and full of wisdom. Good stories from them to be had.
