We take a trip to drop Tony off at Shrewsbury train station. We've already fed the ducks, seen skaters practising jumps and routines. Played monkey climbing at Madley Court leisure centre, had Kentucky chicken and chips.
These are some shots of the station and castle.
We are supposed to go swimming, but when we arrive, a lack of cars warns me they may be closed. I hear bells ringing from the church and lead two disappointed children to the sound. We enter a little, very old wooden door, up worn, narrow, spiral steps to another door. I hesitate, but open, to see 9 campanologists pulling the ropes. We look for a minute, then close the door and are making our escape, whenm the bells stop, I hear group laughter and some one atop the stairs, saying, come back.
We do, and are invited in and sat down. And one peel is dedicated to Esme. Sweets are handed out, and I am give the chance the pull one bell. Wicked :-) And I forgot to take a pix.
