Bayeux


The Bayeux Tapestry was totally out of bounds to cameras, but still quite an experience. As we filed out, I said (quoting Andy) "tick", to which Anne replied "any more 'ticks' and I'll think you have Tourettes!"
In the forecourt of the Tapestry building was this boat. I include it for Peter O'l, to study the tiller arrangement.
Anne was interested in the way they stitched the tapestry.
As I've already said, we weren't allowed to photograph the Tapestry, so I'll conclude this blog with a photograph of a waterwheel which was quite near the street leading to the building where the tapestry was kept. Impressions of the Tapestry itself will be found on postcards sent to a fortunate few.
