A visit to Chichester p1....

 


SWMBO and myself spent a very pleasant few days down in Chichester the week before last, drinking great beer, eating great grub and visiting a few historical places. Obviously we had a few trips to all the shops, where SWMBO spent her hard earned dosh of another handbag!!

We spent an hour or so in Chichester Cathedral, here are a few pics.



Looks a bit like me?



The late Queen and Duke of Edinburgh






Just some of the names of the fallen.


For the vexillophiles amongst us...






I couldn't get a good pic of this, the sun was being a pain!




A tad older than me and most countries of the world c1125

  8. Great looking scenes of Chichester, Ray! I fondly recall the few places I was fortunate to visit back in 2013. The land is so full of beautiful history.
