Sorry, Raggytash, I took your remark as absolutely io the button and didn't mean to sound critical of it. Clumsy sod, Shaw...

I have a special affection for Tintern Abbey, not least because the day we visited it had lovely light. In addition, the occasion was the very first time I got a senior citizen's concession for anything - even though the nice lady on the desk knew that my 60th wasn't until the next day. It felt like winning the lottery (though it saved me just 50p)! The day also managed to largely erase the memory of having Wordsworth's tedious poem shoved down my throat for 'O' Level English Lit!
