Alnwick

Really I have come on my PC to register some books for Bookcrossing; this morning I stayed in bed and finished 'Rivals in the Tudor Court' by Darcey Bonnette; men and their ambitions- while really women quietly rule the world.....
When we set off for Alnwick we envisaged exploring the Gardens but so did the rest of the world that day- so we avoided the Duke and Duchess' domain and mooched round the town, solving a murder mystery which D3 had bought online; daft but good fun- and got us hunting for clues/finding things we would never have noticed otherwise.


We strolled into the marketplace only to find we were in the middle of Alnwick International Music Festival! A drink in the sun accompanied by clompen Dutch groups and Belgian singers- what a grand way to spend a summer's afternoon.
