Every Sunday it was tradition for my and my homeboy Chiu to go down to Lower Wick driving range and have a round on the Pitch and Putt (when I used to live in Worcester). It’s a pretty effective use of space with the driving range in the middle and the short 9 hole course […]

A Trip Up The Hill and a Ride on West Somerset Steam Railway

A Trip to Worcester Cathedral & Royal Worcester Porcelain

After a good long sleep and getting adjusted back to UK time it was off down to Worcester Cathedral for a walk around. We happened to be in town during the Three Choirs Festival, so there were lots of events going on. This part of the Cathedral (the altar) always strikes me as odd, with […]
